•HRES 540 IH 
RESOLUTION 
Expressing the sense of the House of Representatives that 
Congress should complete action on H.R. 3762, the Pen-
sion Security Act of 2002.
Whereas recent events have highlighted the need to provide 
American workers with stronger pension protections and 
greater access to professional investment advice; 
Whereas a bipartisan majority of the House of Representa-
tives passed H.R. 3762, the Pension Security Act of 
2002, on April 11, 2002, by a vote of 255 to 163; 
Whereas the Pension Security Act of 2002 would provide 
working Americans with more investment education and 
information regarding their retirement plans, greater ac-
cess to professional investment advice, rights to diversi-
fied pension plan assets, protections against corporate 
abuses and mismanagement of pensions, and other re-
forms that would increase pension coverage; 
Whereas the pension protections and reforms contained in the 
Pension Security Act of 2002 would enhance the retire-
ment security of American workers; and 
Whereas the Senate has not passed the Pension Security Act 
of 2002 or equivalent legislation: Now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That it is the sense of the House of Rep-
resentatives that the Congress should complete action in 
the 107th Congress on the Pension Security Act of 2002 
and present such legislation to the President for his signa-
ture prior to adjournment so that needed pension protec-

tions and reforms may be delivered to the American peo-
ple.
