UNS Gas faces lawsuit over alleged pension freeze during talks

The filing also describes a “204(h)” notice sent on April 15, 2025, advising employees that changes to the pension would “take effect on June 1, 2025” and would include freezing the plan for new hires. The union says the company then closed the pension to new hires on June 1, 2025, and, on information and belief, modified the plan so it could be amended and terminated for any reason by the Board of Directors of Tucson Electric Power Company. The union maintains it never agreed to give the company unilateral authority over the plan.
