“It has been over 5 months since we passed H.R. 3762, the Pension Reform Security Act. This issue is still a concern to the third district of Arkansas, yet Congress has not completed work on the legislation that will protect my constituents' pensions. The bill we passed back in April evens out the playing field between senior level executives and the men and women of their workforce. This bill relaxes diversification rules for rank and file workers, enhances worker access to quality investment, and provides a number of much-needed retirement security reforms. Mr. Speaker, pension reform and protection are critical to restoring investor confidence in our faltering marketplace, and the completion of this bill is critical to the agenda of the 107th Congress. I encourage my colleagues in the House to reaffirm our commitment to pension protection by voting for House Resolution 540 today.”
