The IAM and United agreed to jointly request a meeting with representives from the Pension Benifit Guaranty Corporation (PBGC) to explore various solutions to United's pensionproblems, including a review of the IAM"S comprehensive proposal to save the millions of dollars annually without changing our member's pensions benifits.
