More than 10 million individuals participate in a multiemployer pension plan. Unfortunately, the pension system faces significant challenges that threaten the retirement security of American families. For almost two years, the committee has been closely examining the current state of the multiemployer pension system and possible reforms. In his remarks on Thursday, Chairman Kline will discuss key principles for reform, as well as address a specific proposal released by the National Coordinating Committee for Multiemployer Plans, a coalition representing both business and labor leaders.
