Welfare reform takes aim at paltry union pensions
Princeton rally voices fury over United Mine Workers Welfare and Retirement Fund payouts. Ken Hechler accuses union leadership of siphoning 850,000 into an elite retirement fund at National Bank of Washington with top officers drawing up to 40,000 annually for life. He calls for mine health and safety measures enabling workers or families to sue operators for damages. Hechler urges a clean union and notes a John L. Lewis Memorial Library will be built in Charleston from private donations. He also targets West Virginia groups resisting black lung legislation and asks miners to rally in Washington on July 4 for national safety laws.
