Based on funding requirements, we made defined benefit pension contributions of $7 million and $153 million for the three and six months ended June听30, 2021, respectively, compared to defined benefit pension contributions of $4 million for the six months ended June听30, 2020. As a result of the CARES Act enacted on March 27, 2020, we deferred $118 million of 2020 pension contributions, which were paid on January 4, 2021. For both the three and six months ended June听30, 2021, we made contributions of $5 million for our voluntary employee benefit association trust plans. Based on funding requirements, no contributions for our voluntary employee benefit association trust plans were required or made for the three and six months ended June听30, 2020.
