The Union Committee asked questions concerning the Company’s proposal to eliminate pensions for all employees hired after January 1, 2013.  The Company has also presented a proposal for no raises to any existing pensions for the life of the new Labor Agreement.  The two Committees will meet again tomorrow, Sunday February 19, 2011.
