Protect Our Pension! Support The Rehabilitation of Multiemployer Pensions Act (H.R. 397)

Workers' pensions are being endangered by both Congress and those charged with overseeing them. The Teamsters and the union members are standing united to say "NO" to cuts and "YES" to greater retirement security.

Support the passage of the Rehabilitation of Multiemployer Pensions Act (H.R, 397), which has been introduced in the 115th Congress as H.R. 4444. It is also the same as the Senate Bill introduced in the 115th Congress that was referred to as the Butch Lewis Act. This is the only legislation that would fully protect your hard-earned pension. 

PLEASE CALL 888-979-9806 now, to let your own representatives in Congress know that any legislative solution must keep pensions whole for both active and retired workers.
