ISSUE – 20,000 salaried retirees of former auto supplier Delphi Corporation now ask Congress to restore our pension plan that was unfairly terminated in 2009 by Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation in a unique circumstance involving Government’s intervention in two bankruptcies.
Congressman Mike Turner (R-OH-10) and Senator Brown (D-OH) held a press conference in Dayton, Ohio, on Monday February 26, 2024. They met with about 30 Delphi salaried retirees before the press conference, they emphasized that their focus right now is to gain support needed to hold a Senate Committee Hearing — reinforcing why outreach to Senate Republicans is so important, and must continue.
Thanks to Congressman Turner and Senator Brown for their bipartisan, bicameral representation and leadership for Delphi salaried retirees. Thanks to retirees Tom Green, Bruce Gump, Mary Miller, and Tom Rose for representing all our retirees at this event, and thanks to the retirees who were invited and able to attend and candidly express their concerns.
U.S. Representatives Mike Turner (R-Ohio), Dan Kildee (D-Mich.), Claudia Tenney (R-N.Y.) and Gwen Moore (D-Wisc.) today reintroduced the Susan Muffley Act (House Bill H.R.735), bipartisan legislation to Restore the Delphi Salaried Retirement Plan.
Senator Sherrod Brown (D-OH) and Senator Mike Braun (R-IN) announced the bipartisan introduction of The Susan Muffley Act in The Senate as Senate Bill S.2277 to recover and restore the reduced pensions of 20,000 salaried retirees of former auto supplier Delphi Corporation. The Senate bill was supported by nine original cosponsoring senators from both sides of the aisle, including Senator Chuck Schumer, Senate Majority Leader.
