[QUOTE="ok2bclever, post: 55516"] Where do you come up with this stuff? Who said anything about vote or joint council? It has been in the news that UPS is lobbying and pushing for legistlation that will limit their liability. I said they haven't said or done anything ( ok, at least that I can find, pending tie helping me out here with a link or something) showing they are doing anything for their worker in this regard. You know us guys that management is always telling how they have our best interests at heart. You said it would be illegal for them to do so. They could tell us that they are (or even plan on . . .) working on a viable alternative to helping our retirement if or after they succeed in limiting their liabilities to the fund which would further endanger our current pension. There would not be anything illegal in that. Tie states "One piece of legislation they are pushing would basically seperate the UPS portion of multi-employer plans within existing plans. This partitioning of the central states plan would ensure that UPS money went to upsers only." If that actually is being attempted and would work as a firewall for us and allow us to keep our 3 grand a year (approx.) even if the fund violated the ERISA laws and the rest of the non-UPS Teamsters were reduced to the $1075 a month that would be great. If they are actually pushing legistlation like this there is nothing illegal about telling us about it. I got to tell you, it ain't often I want tie to be right. But this is the time. [/QUOTE]
