Texas is thriving with a surplus, yet state employees face scrutiny and retirees are overlooked for additional benefits. It's crucial to acknowledge their contributions to Texas and its residents. Now is the perfect time to express our gratitude for their contributions to our State.
JOIN YOUR COWORKERS AND BECOME A MEMBER.
The Texas Public Employees Association (TPEA) was created by state employees in 1946 to represent state employees and retirees before, during and after Legislative Sessions.
Why? Because the Texas Legislature determines everything from your salaries to your benefits during and after your career with the state. And state employees know they are only as strong as their membership. Remember, TPEA is your friend at the Capitol as well as your voice. TPEA doesn't exist unless it has members to represent.
TPEA works to support state employees and retirees--making sure your benefits aren't diminished -- to help secure the salaries, benefits, and more -- so Texans like yourself can devote themselves to careers in public service.But it only works when state employees and retirees are members...because we're all stronger together.

“I’ve been a TPEA member for a long time. TPEA is a recognized and respected resource our legislators rely on to make informed decisions about state employee benefits. One of the most effective things TPEA does is present sensible solutions that they can easily support. That approach benefits active employees and retirees alike, and those of us contemplating retirement soon should applaud TPEA for their leadership in preserving full benefits. Become a member. We're all stronger together.”
