As reported in November, Teamsters Local 89 President Fred Zuckerman sent a letter to General President Hoffa asking him to pledge funds to the Pension Rights Center (PRC) to aid them in their fight against the Multiemployer Pension Reform Act (MPRA) and the devastating affects of the Central States Pension Fund (CSPF) Rescue Plan, and to help them in their support for the Keep Our Pension Promises Act (KOPPA).
Yesterday, President Zuckerman sent a similar letter to all affected Teamsters Local Unions urging their principle officers and executive boards to also pledge funds to the PRC.
As reported previously, Local 89 has pledged $25,000 to the PRC for this cause. We hope many other Local’s join us in this endeavor to stop MPRA and the CSPF Rescue Plan, and to support KOPPA.
