Yesterday, I continued that fight by filing an Amicus Brief in the U.S. Supreme Court with the support of a bipartisan group of lawmakers.\u201d said Rep Turner. \u201cThe Delphi salaried retirees deserve the full value of the retirement benefits promised to them after decades of honest work.\u201d\n\n\u201cIn 2009, the Delphi Salaried Pension Plan was unfairly terminated. This unfair action devastated the long-term financial security of the nearly 6,000 salaried Delphi employees in Ohio, whose benefits were reduced by up to 70 percent. These employees deserve the benefits they earned,\u201d said Senator Portman. \u201cI urge the Supreme Court to grant certiorari and consider the Delphi salaried retirees\u2019 petition seeking to restore their benefits,\u201d \u2013 Senator Rob Portman (OH, R)\n\n\u201cFor over a decade, Delphi Salaried Retirees have suffered economic hardship and stress with the fallout of a decision that stripped our workers of the benefits they earned,\u201d said Congressman Tim Ryan. \u201cI\u2019ve worked with my colleagues on both sides of the aisle since day one to right this injustice and press administration officials from both parties to get these pensions fully restored. In that same effort, I am proud to join my colleagues in filing an Amicus Brief in the U.S. Supreme Court that thoroughly details the need to deliver justice for the thousands of Ohioans who deserve the pensions they were promised.\u201d \u2013 Representative Tim Ryan (OH-13, D)\n\n\u201cThe Delphi salaried pensioners deserve to receive what they earned and were promised by the PBGC - anything less is absolutely unacceptable. Along with my colleagues, I will continue putting this issue at the forefront, and now we\u2019re asking the Supreme Court to step in.\u201d \u2013 Representative Bill Johnson (OH-6, R)\n\n\u201cThe Delphi Salaried Retirees have waited far too long to have their benefits restored. They deserve real action, now. And the Courts should act to make their retirements whole. I have long advocated for these hardworking Delphi Salaried Retirees, and I will continue to fight to ensure they can retire with dignity,\u201d \u2013 Congressman Dan Kildee (MI-05, D)\n\n\u201cFor too long, many Hoosiers who are salaried Delphi retirees have unjustly waited for their well-earned pensions, and I\u2019m proud to join my colleagues in the fight to make sure that they get it.\u201d \u2013 Representative James R. Baird (IN-4, R)\n\n\u201cWhen you earn a pension from years of hard work, you deserve to get it. What occurred to these folks was wrong and I will not stop fighting this injustice until the Delphi Salary Retirees\u2019 pensions are restored.\u201d \u2013 Ralph Norman (SC-05,R)", 1, "2026-03-30T01:40:41Z", "2026-04-06T20:24:51Z"]], "columns": ["url", "title", "date", "year", "month", "party", "chamber", "state", "member_name", "bioguide_id", "domain", "scraper", "source", "date_source", "text", "has_text", "collected_at", "updated_at"], "primary_keys": ["url"], "primary_key_values": ["https://turner.house.gov/2021/10/turner-brings-delphi-fight-to-the-u-s-supreme-court"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 0.7071648724377155, "source": "dwillis/congress-press", "source_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press", "license": "MIT", "license_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press/blob/main/LICENSE"}
