This bill would eliminate the unfair and artificial cut to RUI benefit payments that are unique to unemployed railroad workers. Railroad Retirement Board (RRB) - TCU meets regularly with representatives of the Railroad Retirement Board to discuss issues related to the trust's funding status, potential policy changes by the Board, implementation of Railroad Unemployment expansions and extensions, and other matters.
