Скачать или смотреть The Teamsters Pension Betrayal: How Retirees Lost Everything

In the 1950s, the Teamsters’ Central States Pension Fund was sold to truck drivers as a rock-solid promise: work the miles, pay into the fund, and your retirement would be guaranteed for life. Decades later, those same retirees opened their mailboxes to find letters warning that their pensions could be slashed in half—or vanish entirely.

From the 1950s–2010s, the Teamsters union leadership, pension trustees, and the deregulated trucking industry made a series of decisions about investments, withdrawals, and funding rules that put retirees’ life savings at risk. What followed was a pension promise that vanished—billions drained by bad loans, bankrupt employers, flawed laws, and a system that quietly shifted the burden onto the very workers it was supposed to protect. This is the documented story of the Central States Teamsters Pension crisis, told through records, hearings, actuarial reports, and the retirees who had to fight Washington just to keep what they earned.
