Miners Union rejects two bids and accepts third in Kentucky district
The Miners UMW and Bituminous Coal Operators Association failed to approve the first contract and the second was approved by the bargaining council but rejected 2 to 1 by field voters. The third contract keeps the deductible but lowers annual family payments to 200 dollars. It narrows, though does not erase, the pension gap between older and newer retirees. Larry Smith of Local 2339 Muhlenberg County predicts a 60-40 pass rate despite remaining health deductibles.
