SMART News sits down with Greg Hynes, SMART-TD’s National Director of the Safety and Legislative Department, and Phil Qualy, retired Minnesota Safety and Legislative Director, to discuss the critical implications of proposed cuts within the Railroad Retirement Board (RRB).
As advocates for the hardworking men and women who keep our nation’s railroads moving, Greg and Phil highlight how these changes could delay essential services, increase processing times, and ultimately impact the financial security of current and future retirees along with every railroader that is furloughed or is out of work for medical reasons.
