26 Apr BCTGM Local 6 Members at BIMBO USA Bakery Take Action to Save Pensions…. YOU CAN TOO!

Posted at 10:37h in Pension by

Like all hard-working union members, BCTGM Local 6 (Philadelphia) members at the Lehigh Valley, Pa. value their multiemployer pension, which has been negotiated into their collective bargaining agreements.

BCTGM Local 6 members at the BIMBO Bakeries USA plant in Lehigh Valley, Pa. took time during a recent (union) break to send emails to their U. S. Representatives to urge support for H.R. 397, the Rehabilitation for Multiemployer Pensions Act.ย  The legislation calls for long-term, low-interest loans that will lead to the long-term solvency the B&C Pension Fund and help union retirees who, like them, will depend on their pension when they retire.

โ€œIt is responsible, bipartisan legislation that will effectively address the pension funding crisis in the U.S.,โ€ notes BCTGM International President David Durkee.

President Durkee has issued a call to action to every BCTGM member and retiree to send letters to Congress on this very important legislation. The Local 6 members at Bimbo rallied around the issue and organized an online activist hour to collectively send letters to their U.S. Representatives.

In part, the Local 6 members urged Congressional action stating, โ€œI am very concerned about this countryโ€™s growing pension plan funding crisis. This crisis threatens my pension benefits and my future retirement security.โ€

Join this urgent call to action and email your U.S. Representative!
