The IAM and a coalition of unions and retiree groups stand adamantly against legislation being drafted in the House of Representatives that would make it easier for multiemployer pension plans to cut benefits.
The proposed legislation would allow multiemployer pension plans to transition to so-called “composite” plans, reducing the amount they are required to pay into the plan and weakening the financial base for all plans. Reducing contributions would make them vulnerable to market downturns and inevitably result in deep benefit cuts to retirees.

This is a raw deal for American workers. Tell Congress to reject this pension-killing scheme and protect our retirement security.
