Time to Act on TRICARE, Concurrent Receipt, SBP, Fairer Guard/Reserve Retirement, and More...

Senate leaders are planning to act on the FY2009 Defense Authorization Bill during the last week of July - just a little more than a week from now. Now is the time for MOAA members and others to show the same level of interest they did in getting the Medicare bill passed. You can do that by using MOAA's Web site to urge your senators to support selected amendments that are crucial to our members' interests, including:

  • Sen. Frank Lautenberg's (D-NJ) and Sen. Chuck Hagel's (R-NE) amendment to protect military beneficiaries from disproportional TRICARE fee hikes
  • Sen. Harry Reid's (D-NV) amendment to expand eligibility for concurrent receipt payments
  • Sen. Bill Nelson's (D-FL) amendment to end the DIC offset for SBP widows
  • Sen. Saxby Chambliss' (R-GA) amendment to provide fairer retirement credit for Guard and Reserve members who served in Iraq and Afghanistan

Even if you previously sent this message, it's time to send it again. Congress has a short attention span, and volume counts.

The Military Officers Association of America - San Antonio


A Nationally Recognized "4 Star" Chapter!

In February, 1958, the San Antonio Retired Officers Association (SAROA) was organized with 56 charter members. In January, 1961, when it was chartered as an affiliate of The Retired Officers Association (TROA), now the Military Officers Association of America (MOAA), membership had grown to 499. Today, as we celebrate our fifty years as an organization, the membership exceeds 950 regular and auxiliary members making MOAA-Alamo Chapter (MOAA-AC) one of the largest chapters of MOAA in the nation.
