Bill > SC531

This concurrent resolution recognizes the growing problem of retirement insecurity among American workers, which means many people are struggling to save enough money for their later years, leading to financial hardship for older adults. This issue is worsened by factors like people living longer and increasing healthcare costs. The resolution highlights that a significant majority of households with adults over 60 are already facing financial difficulties or are at risk of becoming insecure. It also points to efforts by organizations like the National Council of Insurance Legislators (NCOIL) to encourage retirement plans to offer options that provide a steady income throughout retirement, and urges employers to promote these options. Ultimately, this resolution calls on federal and state leaders to raise awareness about this trend and implement policies that offer advice, tools, and solutions to help workers achieve a secure retirement, and it encourages retirement systems and employers to increase public awareness and financial education for workers.
