Insurance Benefits Available to Members

During open enrollment, don't forget about benefits available to members! In many cases, benefits available to CEA members can save you significant money compared to options offered by the district ... in fact, many members can save enough to pay for their membership (and then some)! For more information, visit our page on open enrollment benefits.

AEA Efforts Pay Off as Retirement Contributions Set to Return to 50/50

Great news for teachers across the state: the Arizona legislature is on the verge of passing a bill that would return the employee/employer split of retirement contributions to an even 50/50. The bill passed the House on a unanimous 60-0 vote! AEA took the lead on discussing this issue with key legislators, helping to make sure we will get a full reimbursement of our excessive retirement contributions by June 30. Thank you, AEA!
