SENATOR CONTACT KIT
INTRODUCTION
You have probably contacted us because you received the “MAKE YOUR VOICE HEARD” post
card from the Fund asking you to call your Senator. It is critical that we mobilize at this critical
moment in time and ask Senators to support multi-employer pension plan relief in the next Covid-
19 Stimulus Bill.
This Kit has been developed to assist you in preparing for your contact with your two U.S.
Senators.
The goal of this effort is to have large numbers of retirees, beneficiaries, active and inactive
workers, employers and union officials associated with the GCC/IBT, and other labor unions,
contact their Senators, preferably by phone or electronic message. The timing is such that a
regular letter is not likely to reach Senators in time and face to face visits are unlikely to be
accepted because of the Pandemic.
In this Kit, you will find not only the Senator telephone numbers and fax numbers where applicable
but also the addresses for all 100 U.S. Senators as well as other information and tips on how to
contact your Senators’ by telephone, fax (where applicable) and other electronic means.
Read through the contents slowly and carefully to get a better feel for how you may wish to contact
your Senators.
2 | P a g e
WHAT IS THE ISSUE?
1. Including legislation in the next Covid-19 Stimulus bill to fix the MULTI-EMPLOYER
PENSION CRISIS! Congress has kicked the can down the road for 10 years on this issue
and unless they are pressured at this moment in time, they are likely to kick the can even
further down the road. Congress has bailed out the Airlines, the Auto industry, Banks and
Wall Street. Isn’t it about time they resolve the pension crisis. If this crisis is not addressed
soon, the result will be:
a) the insolvency of many more multi-employer pension plans, including the GCC/IBT
National Pension Fund;
b) the reduction and/or loss of participant pension benefits to the detriment of retirees,
active workers and beneficiaries; and
c) immeasurable harm to an already fragile economy as inaction will result in the
ultimate solution being much more costly than if it was to be addressed today.
If your Senators are Democrats, tell them how important it is that they not cave in to the
argument that the Covid-19 legislation should only be utilized to address Covid-19 related
matters.
Tell them retirees, beneficiaries, and workers have been neglected in favor of the likes of the
airline industry, auto industry, banks and Wall Street for too long and that this will be an
important issue for you on Election Day.
Tell them that the anxiety you live with on a daily basis worrying about whether your pension
will be there is growing and that the negative impact of a Pension Benefit Guaranty
Corporation (the federal entity that insures multiemployer pension funds) insolvency is
immeasurable and will harm to you and millions or similarly situated individuals nation wide.
If your Senators are Republicans and are up for election this fall, use your vote as
leverage and tell them retirees, beneficiaries, and workers have been neglected in favor of
the likes of the airline industry, auto industry, banks and Wall Street for too long and that this
will be an important issue for you on Election Day. Tell them that the anxiety you live with
3 | P a g e
on daily basis worrying about whether your pension will be there is growing and that the
negative impact of a Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation (the federal entity that insures
multiemployer pension funds) insolvency is immeasurable and will harm to you and millions
or similarly situated individuals nation wide. Tell them that this issue is very important to you
and that you hope it is also high on their list of priorities.
2. Resolving the inadequate funding of the Pension Benefit Guarantee Corporation
(PBGC). The PBGC is the arm of the federal government that insures pension plans and it
recently announced that it will become insolvent in 2025 if no action is taken by Congress.
KNOW THE SPECIFICS
1. What bill are you supporting? – HR6800, “the Heroes Act”, passed by the House of
Representatives on May 15, 2020, and more specifically, “the Emergency Pension Plan
Relief Act” contained within the Heroes Act.
2. What does HR6800 say? – HR6800 contains the “Emergency Pension Plan Relief Act”
(“EPPRA”). EPPRA calls for adequate funding for the PBGC and allows expansion of the so
called partition process allowing pension plans
A. In critical and declining status (like the National Pension Fund),
B. Poorly funded plans with high ratios of retirees to active participants (like the National
Pension Fund),
C. Plans that have already suspended benefits, or certain plans that have already
become insolvent, to avail themselves of the partition tool.
This Act is designed to resolve the financial issues facing multi-employer pension funds and
safeguard your pension.
3. Under the Heroes Act, the special partition program would be available to plans meeting one
of the above criteria through 2024. Plans that are partitioned would need to restore any
benefits previously cut or suspended.
4. How does the proposed bill impact you and the Senators’ other similarly situated
constituents? – The pensions of retirees and current workers, like yourself, were earned
during years of hard work. To gain pension benefits, you gave up pay raises and other
4 | P a g e
benefits. It is not your fault that these plans are on the verge of insolvency, but this awful
situation will lead to a minimum of harsh benefit cuts and possibly termination of pension
benefits if the PBGC goes insolvent. The loss of these pension benefits will result in serious
hardship to you in retirement and at this stage of your life there is no way for you to replace
the pension income that you were promised and depend on.
HOW DO I CONTACT MY SENATORS?
1. You have several methods you can use to timely convey your feeling to your Senators! You
can contact them by:
a) Telephone (Senator phone numbers provided herein);
b) Electronic message/email (web address to send automated pre-written messages to
your Senators discussed herein); and
c) Fax (Senator fax numbers provided herein, where applicable)
HOW DO I CALL A SENATORS OFFICE?
1. Call your Senators’ Washington, DC office, give the receptionist your name and ask to
speak to the aid/staffer handling the multiemployer pension crisis issue.
2. Provide the aid/staffer with the information you would include in a letter:
a) Introduce yourself, tell the staffer where you are from, and, that you are a participant
in the GCC/IBT National Pension Fund.
b) Tell the staffer what you want - be specific! Give him/her the bill number (HR6800), a
very brief summary, and why the bill is important to you.
c) Make it personal and explain how a reduction or termination of your pension benefits
would affect you.
d) If (s)he asks you a question you cannot answer, do not panic! Tell him/her you will
get back to him/her with that information. If you need help with the additional
information, email us at [email protected] or call us at the Fund Office (630) 871-
7733 and we will do our best to assist you. We can even set up a call with you to talk
you through this exercise.
5 | P a g e
e) Be brief. These folks are as busy as you are!
f) If the staffer is not available, leave a message . . . and call back the next day, just for
good measure! (S)he might be busy when you call, so suggest setting up a phone
meeting at a mutually convenient time.
HOW CAN I SEND AN ELECTRONIC MESSAGE TO MY SENATORS?
The Fund has partnered with “The Action Network” to provide you with an easy on-line method to
send a pre-written electronic message directly to your Senators. Visit the following site:
www.actionnetwork.org/letters/letter-to-senators
This website will provide you with a summary of how this crisis has developed over time and by
entering your contact information, it will allow you to send a pre-written message directly to your
individual Senators. In the alternative, you can modify the message to be sent to your Senators
but do your best to keep it brief and to the point.
In the next section you will see that you can also send an electronic message by going to your
Senators individual website and sending your comments through the Senators website. The
Senators’ websites are set forth in the LIST OF U.S. SENATORS BY STATE which starts on page
11.
WHAT DO I SAY IN A FAX OR ELECTRONIC MESSAGE/EMAIL?
Sample letters for retirees, vested but not retired participants, actively working participants and
beneficiaries to send via fax to their Senators (start on page 8). Very few Senators accept emails
directly today. In most cases you have to access the Senators’ website and submit your message
through their platform. The sample letters that follow provide you an outline of what to include in
your email letters, electronic message or submission through your Senators’ website. If you wish to
compose your own letter, here are some tips.
6 | P a g e
1. Introduce yourself. The reader should know your name, where you are from and that you
are a retiree, vested but not retired participants, actively working participant or beneficiary
participating in the GCC/IBT National Pension Fund.
2. Tell your Senator that you want him/her to support HR6800 “the Heroes Act” because
without it, your pension benefit could be subject to reduction or termination.
3. Make it personal! Do you have any stories about the issue at hand, or do you know people
who do? Share those stories!
4. Be brief! Share a story, but be sure to be concise. The reader will have limited time.
5. Thank your Senators or their aide/staffer for his/her time.
6. If you are writing a traditional letter and sending by fax it to the Senators’ Washington, DC
offices. Remember that you have two U.S. Senators.
7. Senators have made it more difficult to send emails directly to them. Some Senators will
not accept emails and others require you to go to their websites to send a message. We
are providing you with a list of electronic contact information for Senators but its reliability is
suspect. Communicating with your Senators’ office by telephone is the most effective way
to get this message across. The downside of mail or via email is that it is less effective
than speaking with someone in the Senators’ office by phone or in person. Also, your letter
or email is seldom read by the person you are sending it to. Senators have three or four
people on their staff that do nothing but answer the mail. The volume of mail pouring into
most legislative offices is overwhelming, and your Senator simply lacks the time to
personally read and answer your letter. Almost all letters are answered using computers;
only rarely does a Senator actually read his mail, and rarely signs his own letters. Good
legislative offices tally incoming letters and present the Senators with the totals on given
issues. Remember, in most cases, aides/staffers will be handling your communication. Try
to make their jobs easier, and design your letter to stand out from the clutter.

Washington, DC ____________
Dear Senator ______________:
I am a retiree in the GCC/IBT National Pension Fund and one of your constituents. I know the House of
Representatives recently passed H.R. 6800, “the Heroes Act”, on May 15, 2020, and more specifically, “the
Emergency Pension Plan Relief Act” (EPPRA) which is contained within the Heroes Act. This legislation: 1) addresses
the serious multiemployer pension crisis that this country is currently facing; 2) alleviates pressure on the Pension
Benefit Guaranty Corporation; and 3) ensures that retirees and beneficiaries will receive all of the benefits that they
are entitled to.
I hope that the Senate will similarly adopt this legislation as it is a solution to the multiemployer pension crisis. Your
support for this legislation in the Senate will mean so much to me, my fellow co-workers, our families and your other
similarly situated constituents who depend on the pension benefits that were earned through a lifetime of dedication
and hard work.
I hope you will support this legislation and that you will also urge your colleagues in the Senate to seriously consider
adoption of this important legislation. Please write back to me with your position on this very serious matter.
