John Adler was most recently the Director of the Retirement Security Campaign at SEIU, where he managed all aspects of SEIU’s retirement security program, including public pension funds, Taft-Hartley pensions, Social Security, and private sector plans. He ran state campaigns to create state-sponsored retirement plans for workers without access to plans, and co-founded the Georgetown Center for Retirement Initiatives. Adler has spent 23 years with SEIU, first as an organizer with SEIU/1199 United Healthcare Workers East in New York, and, since 2001, working on pension and retirement issues with the international union first as the Director of the Capital Stewardship Program—where he oversaw all of the union’s work on private equity—and then as the Director of the Retirement Security Campaign. Adler worked with SEIU locals and state councils to address threats to the retirement security of its members, and to advocate for solutions to the retirement security crisis the United States faces because of the decline of pensions in the private sector. Adler has a B.A. from Yale University, and lives with his wife and two children in Brooklyn, New York.
