A coalition of 24 organizations started an online signature campaign to urge President Bush and lawmakers to enact a pension legislation package that would make it easier for workers to save more through employer-sponsored retirement and pension plans, as well as IRAs. The coalition, including the American Benefits Council, the American Society of Pension Actuaries, the ERISA Industry Committee and several other trade organizations, is collecting signatures at www.PassPensionReform.org. The legislation was introduced today in the House by Reps. Rob Portman, R-Ohio, and Ben Cardin, D-Md. The Senate is expected to introduce its version within a few weeks.
