Ryan works on Delphi Packard retirees’ behalf

WARREN — U.S. Rep. Tim Ryan has stepped in to help Delphi Packard Electric retirees who fear they are about to lose their health-care benefits.

Ryan of Niles, D-17th, has written letters and spoken to members of the Obama administration on behalf of both hourly and salaried retirees.

Ryan’s concern is that thousands of area retirees who are under 65 could lose all of the health-care benefits in the bankruptcies of General Motors and Delphi Corp., said Sean Buchanan, district counsel for the congressman.
