John Kline: “The administration has brought forward a very, very big new proposal.”

No one voted for me in less than 35 days, and I would afford employees the same opportunity to be able to make an informed decision with regard to choosing their union representation.

I cannot State emphatically enough that far-reaching reform, fiscal responsibility, and bipartisanship must be the principles that guide us as we work to solve this problem.

If Congress does not reform the architecture of the multiemployer pension system, then it won't matter how much money we throw at this problem.

We owe it to them to set aside our political differences and come to the table to find a bipartisan solution that secures their future.
