Evidence
The campaign site says, "Won’t stop fighting until the pensions of all Delphi retirees are restored."
On October 22, 2020, President Trump issued a memorandum directing executive-branch review of the pension situation for Delphi Corporation retirees and other vulnerable pension-plan retirees.
Congress.gov shows H.R.6929 passed the House on July 27, 2022, and was received in the Senate on July 28, 2022; the bill's tracker did not show enactment into law.
Congress.gov lists H.R.1357, sponsored by Rep. Turner, as introduced on February 13, 2025 and referred to committee; the tracker shows the bill status as Introduced.
Sponsor: Rep. Turner, Michael R. [R-OH-10] (Introduced 02/13/2025). Latest Action: House - 02/13/2025 Referred to the Committee on Education and Workforce, and in addition to the Committee on Ways and Means. This bill has the status Introduced.
As of January 2026, the bills include the Susan Muffley Act of 2025 (introduced as H.R. 1357 by Representative Mike Turner on February 13, 2025). In 2022, H.R. 6929 passed the House but did not receive a vote in the Senate.
Assessments
The promised outcome was full restoration of the pensions of all Delphi retirees. The record shows Turner repeatedly pursued the issue, including sponsoring or backing Susan Muffley Act legislation, and a 2022 version passed the House. However, the legislation did not become law, and the 2025 Turner-sponsored bill remained pending/referred rather than enacted. A 2020 presidential memorandum and later bill introductions were concrete efforts but did not restore the pensions. Because Turner made serious federal legislative and advocacy efforts but the promised pension restoration has not been delivered, this is a failed promise with effort credit.
The promised outcome was full restoration of all Delphi retirees' pensions. The evidence shows Turner repeatedly and materially advanced the issue, including sponsoring H.R. 1357 in 2025 and backing earlier Susan Muffley Act efforts; H.R. 6929 passed the House in 2022 but was not enacted, and the 2020 presidential memorandum only directed review rather than restoring pensions. Current congressional/CRS records still describe restoration legislation as pending, not completed. Because the substantive outcome has not been delivered despite serious legislative and advocacy efforts, this is a failed promise with effort credit.
The promised outcome was restoration of pensions for all Delphi retirees. Available legislative records show serious and continuing efforts, including House passage of the Susan Muffley Act in 2022 and Turner sponsoring H.R.1357 in 2025, but the 2022 bill did not become law and the 2025 bill remains only introduced/referred to committee. The 2020 executive memorandum ordered review rather than actual restoration. Because the pensions have not been restored, the promise was not fulfilled, though Turner made serious legislative efforts.
