On the recordJuly 24, 2019
Mr. Speaker, I yield myself the remainder of my time. Mr. Speaker, the bottom line is that retirees and workers in multiemployer union pension plans deserve better than a political statement disguised as a legislative proposal. Advancing this highly flawed bill, which has no chance of being passed in the Senate, will only result in delays rather than solutions for workers and retirees who are so rightfully concerned about the state of their pensions. Mr. Speaker, the individuals in the unions did trust those in charge. They are not at fault for what has happened, but I urge all of my colleagues to join me in opposing H.R. 397, and I yield back the balance of my time.
