What the Rail Pension Bill Means to Workers
Summary of the Wagner Crosser railroad retirement bill passed by the House and sent to the Senate. It sets pension eligibility for retirees 65 with 30 years, or 60 with 30 years, and those permanently disabled. Pensions are computed via service years and piecewise percentages, with a $120 cap for pre-1937 service and no cap for post-1937 service. Death benefits, government funding, and a new payroll tax starting at 5.3 percent rise to 7.5 percent by 1949. Retirements before 65 allowed, but no extra pension for service after 65.
