Bill Summary

An act relating to the establishment of VT Saves.

AI Summary

This bill establishes the VT Saves Program, administered by the Office of the State Treasurer, to increase financial security for Vermonters by providing access to an individual retirement account (IRA) for Vermont employees of companies that do not currently offer a retirement savings program. The bill requires covered employers to offer their covered employees the choice to contribute to a payroll deduction IRA, with automatic enrollment and the option to opt out. The program will be phased in over time, starting with employers with 25 or more covered employees in July 2025. The bill also repeals previous legislation related to the Green Mountain Secure Retirement Plan.
