Butch Lewis act. Saved pension. Was a contract negotiated with UPS to fund the pension over all the contracts? Yes, it was. That means the money has already been paid to fund the pension. My conclusion is 1. Either the Union underestimated how much money was needed. 2. Did a poor job investing. 3. Stole the money. As a 33-year employee, I am thankful the plan is back on track. As a tax-paying citizen, I would be agitated knowing my tax money went to bail out a mismanaged fund.
