Congressman Mike Turner today issued the following statement in response to the announcement of a tentative agreement between IUE-CWA and General Motors and Delphi on health care benefits for retirees:“As I relayed to General Motors president and CEO Fritz Henderson in July, these are critical benefits that represent promises made by General Motors and Delphi. Although this concession on the part of GM is not sufficient to meet the full needs of these former auto workers, it is important that this settlement be offered.
“I join the IUE-CWA leadership in calling on the Administration and the Treasury Department to seek a final agreement that provides IUE-CWA members with the benefits they worked for and were promised.”
