Press Release 1575 “Wednesday of the Retirees” June 14, 2022
JUNE 15, DECLARED BY THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY OF THE UNITED NATIONS AS THE "DAY OF AWARENESS AND PREVENTION AGAINST MISTREATMENT AND ABUSE OF ELDERLY ADULTS", IS A DAY OF AWARENESS OF THE VARIOUS FORMS OF MISTREATMENT THAT THEY ARE EXPRESSED IN REALITY AND THE NEED TO STRUGGLE FOR THE RIGHTS OF ELDERLY PEOPLE, RETIRED AND PENSIONED, THAT ALLOW THEM TO LIVE THIS STAGE OF LIFE WITH AUTONOMY AND DIGNITY.

The prolongation of human life, an achievement of scientific development and global collective knowledge, requires measures that ensure quality conditions in increasing life expectancy. It is the fundamental responsibility of the State to implement adequate public policies and ensure the necessary economic resources.
The material base of the various forms of mistreatment and abuse is exercised with the current retirement assets of the majority of retired workers and pensioners, which do not cover the basic basket of an elderly person, aggravated by the deterioration in prevention and health care and assistance in the INSSJYP-PAMI-, in public health systems and in social works.
Our permanent fight is for a retirement and pension that are a true substitute for salary or income, after years of contributions to the pension system of part of the salary or deferred income.
We are aware that this violence is part of the exploitation system, with the aim of obtaining the maximum profit, headed by the large dominant economic groups of the capitalist system. Wages, pensions and income not consistent with the coverage of the basic needs of children, youth, adults and older adults with shortcomings in access to health, housing, education , culture, recreation translate into poverty and all the negative aspects for the active and retired working class and the popular sectors.
The urgency of an emergency increase is not only a problem of pensions and minimum pensions, which today only cover a third of basic needs, it is an accumulated loss of the purchasing power of all assets. This situation is aggravated for obtaining current and future pensions for around half of the economically active population, in conditions of unregistered work, unemployment, underemployment and job insecurity.
WITH THE UNITY AND MOBILIZATION OF TRADE UNIONS, TRADE UNIONS, RETIRED, SOCIAL, AND TERRITORIAL ORGANIZATIONS, CONSEQUENT IN THE DEFENSE OF THE RIGHTS OF THE ACTIVE AND RETIRED WORKING CLASS, WE WILL AGAIN PRESENT OUR THREE PROJECTS OF LAWS IN THE CONGRESS OF THE NATION TO PRODUCE A GREAT POPULAR AND PARLIAMENTARY DEBATE:
NEW LAW OF SOCIAL PROTECTION, LAW OF NORMALIZATION OF THE INSSPJ (PAMI) AND LAW OF COMMODATED HOUSING FOR RETIRED AND PENSIONED WITH HOUSING NEEDS.
          ENOUGH VIOLENCE, ABUSE AND MISTREATMENT OF ELDERLY PEOPLE!!
