Pensions relief talks collapse in push to save employer contributions
Negotiations between House and Senate on a major pensions relief bill broke down on Friday risking legislation that could spare employers billions in pension contributions over two years. Rep. Boehner cited danger to the bill while Sen. Kennedy blamed White House opposition to more aid for union linked multiemployer plans. The dispute centered on Senate language aiding multiemployer plans though general agreement existed on reshaping two year contribution formulas to save about $80 billion for single-employer plans during the interim.
