BE IT RESOLVED BY THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES OF THE STATE OF OHIO
(THE SENATE CONCURRING):
| WHEREAS, In the General Motors-Delphi Corporation bankruptcy
proceedings, which were guided by the United States Treasury and
the President's Auto Task Force, all Delphi Corporation employee
pension funds were transferred to the Federal Pension Benefit
Guarantee Corporation; and |
| WHEREAS, The earned pensions of all Delphi retirees are part
of their promised compensation; and |
| WHEREAS, General Motors has agreed to "top up" the pension
plans of the Delphi hourly employees represented by the United
Auto Workers (UAW), the International Union of Electronic,
Electrical, Salaried, Machine, and Furniture Workers-Communication
Workers of America (IUE-CWA), and the United Steel Workers (USW);
and |
| WHEREAS, General Motors has not agreed to "top up" the
pension plans of the Delphi salaried retirees and the Delphi
hourly retirees represented by the International Brotherhood of
Electrical Workers (IBEW), the International Association of
Machinists and Aerospace Workers (IAMAW), and the International
Union of Operating Engineers (IUOE); and |
| WHEREAS, Funds for the health care insurance promised as a
retirement benefit have been provided for the UAW, totally
eliminated for the Delphi salaried retirees, and greatly reduced
for the IUE-CWA, the USW, the IBEW, the IAMAW, and the IUOE; and |
| WHEREAS, This is unfair and inequitable treatment of the
different working groups and will lead to thousands of job losses
in the State of Ohio; and |
| WHEREAS, the Delphi retirees all worked for the same company
side-by-side for twenty, thirty, or even more than forty years;
and |
| WHEREAS, The Delphi retirees worked loyally, faithfully, and
beneficially for General Motors and the Delphi Corporation; and |
| WHEREAS, All of the Delphi retirees are equally deserving of
their post-employment benefits; and |
| WHEREAS, All of the Delphi retirees deserve equal treatment
from their federal government; now therefore be it |
| RESOLVED, That we, the members of the 128th General Assembly
of the State of Ohio, hereby urge the President of the United
States, the Secretary of the Treasury, the head of the President's
Auto Task Force, the President of General Motors, and the
President of the Delphi Corporation to immediately remedy the
injustice, treat all of the General Motors-Delphi retirees fairly
and equitably, and provide for the full earned pensions and other
post employment benefits in the same manner for all groups; and be
it further |
| RESOLVED, That the Clerk of the Senate transmit duly
authenticated copies of this resolution to the President of the
United States, the Secretary of the Treasury, the head of the
President's Auto Task Force, the chief executive officers of
General Motors and the Delphi Corporation, and the news media of
Ohio. |
