Iraq bill includes airline pension provision
 
I just read this in the New York Times.

"Then there are airlines like Continental and American, who won a last-minute battle with the White House over a plan that would allow them to together reduce the contributions to their pension plans by almost $2 billion over the next decade."
"The two companies, along with a few smaller airlines such as Alaska Air, will be given leeway to reduce contributions to their defined benefit pension plans by a combined total of $2 billion, according to the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corp."
