STOP DOUGY AND HIS NCCMP RATS

Local retirees taking pension concerns to Washington

A retired Teamster has helped organize a trip to lobby Congress to repeal part of a 2014 budget provision that would allow multiemployer pension plans to cut monthly pension benefits to retirees.
Local retirees who get pensions from the Central States Pension Fund will travel to Washington this week.
Brad Colesworthy, of Cramerton, has helped organize the trip in an effort to lobby Congress to repeal part of a 2014 budget provision that would allow multiemployer pension plans that are in danger of running out of money to cut monthly pension benefits to retirees.
Colesworthy hopes to take two van loads of retirees to the nation’s capital late Wednesday night and return to Gaston County on Thursday night.
On Thursday, Colesworthy says Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders, a Democratic candidate for president, will introduce legislation to repeal the provision.
Multiemployer pension plans were negotiated by employers and unions. Usually, those employers were part of the same industry, such as trucking or hospitality workers.
Colesworthy, who turns 75 in July, was a Teamsters Union member during his truck driving career, which ended in 2003 after Consolidated Freightways closed in Charlotte.
Local Teamsters held a meeting in Belmont last month over the issue that attracted more than 150 people, Colesworthy said. The issue could affect hundreds of thousands of retirees across the nation.
Congress passed the provision in December 2014 as part of a budget bill to prevent a government shutdown. Republican Rep. Patrick McHenry, who represents Gaston and Cleveland counties in the 10th U.S. House District, voted for the measure in order to avoid a government shutdown, according to a release from his office.
