Dear Senator XXXXXXXX,
I wanted to bring to your attention the following Senators and their bipartisan effort. Senators Frank R. Lautenberg (D-NJ), Johnny Isakson (R-GA), Maria Cantwell (D-WA), Saxby Chambliss (R-GA), and Patty Murray (D-WA), are sponsoring a Push for Restoring Airline Employee Pensions.
I asked this question a long time ago. How does an airline that has just recently come out of bankruptcy, taken Millions from its' employees to "survive"; all of a sudden come up with BILLIONS of dollars to buy another bankrupt airline. Thank God somebody that can do something about it, is asking the same question.
It should be absolutely criminal to underfund pensions. People work their whole lives for a company expecting their pension to be there when they retire. And what, ohhh sorry we didn't contribute enough to your pension and we're bankrupt.
US Airways and other recently bankrupt airlines shouldn't be able to do any such transactions/mergers until they restore the employees wages, benefits, AND pensions to where they were before they robbed them.
Please see to it that US Airways uses its $5 BILLION dollars to restore the pensions. Please do not make the taxpayer and the PBGC pay for US Airways mismanagement.
Senator XXXXXXX, please do whatever you can to support the above mentioned Senators. And, see to it that the Push for Restoring Airline Employee Pensions is successful.
Thank you for your efforts on this important matter.
Sincerely,
XXXXXXXX
