21 Jul TOMORROW: National CALL IN Day on the HEROES Act
The COVID-19 pandemic continues to upend our lives and our economy. This crisis is showing that we cannot have a healthy economy without a healthy workforce.
Working people are among the hardest hit, and our senators must act with urgency to pass the HEROES Act, which will put our country on the path to recovery.
The HEROES Act includes an effective, comprehensive solution to the multiemployer pension funding crisis that would provide long-term security for pension funds, including the B&C Fund, and for beneficiaries.ย
The Republican-controlled U.S. Senate has so far refused to take action on the HEROES Act. Without strong pressure from working people, the Senate may not take action and we would lose this valuable opportunity to protect our pensions.
