Rockefeller said he was one vote short of long term reform but was content that beneficiaries would be cared for next year. The Senate panel allocated 22 million to nine "super readback" companies lacking miners union labor agreements in 26 years but contributing to the benefits. The Combined Benefit Fund funds health care for retirees whose former employers folded or cannot be located, funded by the Abandoned Mine Lands tax. GAO notes a shortage due to court rulings and rising costs. The fund covers 67,000 people, 80 percent over 70, mostly in WV, PA, KY. Aims to attach to a larger bill. another House panel bill would shore up solvency with near 100,000 in unspecified time.
