The two board seats elected by retired and active members are currently occupied by David Miller (Position A) and Margaret Brown (Position B). Their four-year terms expire on January 15, 2022. Both Miller and Brown were first elected to the CalPERS Board in 2017 and are completing their first terms.
These board seats represent all CalPERS members, so retired and active members are eligible to vote online, by phone, and by mail in this election.
Information on the upcoming board election and resources for members and candidates are available on our Board Elections page.
The 13-member CalPERS Board of Administration sets policy and oversees the administration of retirement and health benefits on behalf of California public employers, and their active and retired employees.
