	"description": "Draft legislation making its way through Congress has the potential to send shockwaves through nation’s multiemployer pension system. Called the composite bill, the legislation would create incentives for employers in well-funded multiemployer pension plans to create new plans that could reduce pension benefits for workers and retirees. There’s no question that there are problems in the nation’s multiemployer pension system. But the way to fix these problems is not by creating new plans that have less secure benefits and reduce incentives for employers to keep their already-existing pensions. [LINK] Stand with workers and retirees by telling your members of Congress not to consider legislation that would undermine the retirement security of the 10 million workers and retirees who count on their pensions. This isn’t the first time that some in Congress have tried to pass legislation that has the potential to devastate the retirement security of workers and retirees who have multiemployer pension plans. Two years ago, Congress attached the Multiemployer Pension Reform Act to must-pass omnibus legislation – without congressional hearings or input from the workers and retirees who would be most affected by the law’s passage. MPRA allowed certain underfunded pension plans to cut – in some cases by as much as 70 percent – earned pensions for workers and retirees, placing their retirement security in jeopardy. [LINK] We can’t let this happen again. Tell your members of Congress to protect workers and retirees by rejecting any proposal that would further undermine the nation’s multiemployer pension system. Thank you, Karen Friedman Executive Vice President and Policy Director, Pension Rights Center",
