Teamsters face 31 percent pension cut - Times Union
Decline in union membership has pummeled private sector pensions
Facing theses cuts, retirees are understandably angry.
"I'm going from middle class to poor,'' said one retiree.
"I don't understand, exactly, where the money went,'' added a woman who, like many of those present, retired from United Parcel Service.
Amid this anger, Local 294 is starting to look to Congress for some help.
