Increasing Retirement Savings
A discussion about state and federal proposals to boost access to private sector retirement plans
Workers in the United States accumulate the vast majority of their retirement savings through employer-based plans, but large gaps in coverage exist. A recent analysis by The Pew Charitable Trusts shows that more than 30 million private-sector workers report they do not have access to an employer-based retirement plan.
On April 12, 2016, Pew’s retirement savings project will host a discussion in the U.S. Capitol Visitor Center with experts on state and federal approaches to ensure that more Americans have the opportunity to save sufficient amounts for retirement.
Senator Ben Cardin (D-MD), a member of the Senate Finance Committee, will deliver opening remarks.
