U.S. Senate Omnibus talks fail to include House-passed Susan Muffley Act;
DSRA Board carefully considering next steps
Negotiations in the United States Senate for the Omnibus spending bill today failed to achieve sufficient bipartisan agreement to include the House-passed Susan Muffley Act. Key Senators actively opposed inclusion in the Senate’s Omnibus spending bill. Had there been Senate agreement and subsequent House passage, the bill would have reinstated the pension plan for Delphi salaried retirees. The 13-year pension nightmare for 20,000 who worked for Delphi Corporation would have come to an end.
“This is a terrible blow to retirees who worked hard and played by the rules. Many lost up to 70 percent of their active or promised pensions. They had no representation during the government-directed pension termination in 2009,” declared Bruce Gump, DSRA board chairman.
