Congressman Tim Ryan (OH-13) slammed a ruling from the U.S. District Court in Eastern Michigan claiming the Delphi salaried retirees offered no evidence to support the claim that the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corps terminated their pension plan in violation of the law.

"I'm extremely disappointed by the court's decision. The Delphi retirees put in a lifetime of work, investing in their retirement, and yet the rug was pulled out under them. This federal ruling denies them their hard earned pension -- that's not right. Retirement should be a protected asset in this country. And regardless of our political affiliation and employment status, we all should be fighting for income and retirement security," said Congressman Ryan.
