Rehabilitation for Multiemployer Pensions Act of 2019

Jul. 24, 2019 | H.R. 397

This legislation is a step toward addressing our nation’s looming pension crisis. Absent federal action, the retirement income security of over one million American workers, retirees, and their spouses across the country will be in jeopardy because of the impending failure of their multiemployer pension plans. By establishing a federal loan program for troubled plans meeting certain criteria, this bill reflects the fact that allowing these plans to fail will have a devastating impact not only on individual retirees and their families, but also on their communities and their employers. The bill passed the House on July 18, 2019.
