COVID Stimulus Package/Pensions Support Message:

 

COVID has put the pensions of 1.4 million Teamster members and retirees at even greater risk. But Congress is moving forward with a COVID-19 stimulus package that includes pension protection. We’re now closer than ever to saving the pensions that we’ve negotiated for and earned.

Like so many Teamsters, Matt worked hard and paid into his pension—but those pensions will disappear unless Congress acts. We’re closer than ever to a real fix. This week, Democrats on the House Ways and Means Committee voted to include a fix for the multi-employer pension crisis in the COVID relief package. Watch Matt’s story, then pledge to fight for secure pensions, strong unions and good jobs http://ibt.io/BBS
