WASHINGTON, D.C. -- In a letter to Speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives Paul Ryan (R-WI) and Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-CA), the Council recognized the chamber's thoughtful attention to retirement savings policy. Today, the full House approved the Family Savings Act (H.R. 6757), a bill with numerous provisions affecting employer-sponsored retirement savings plans.
The American Benefits Council (Council) commends the House of Representatives for recognizing the importance of retirement savings through employer-sponsored retirement plans. The Family Savings Act of 2018 (H.R. 6757) includes provisions that are very important to protecting and improving personal financial security. However, the bill is missing valuable bipartisan, bicameral proposals that would further enhance this goal and we hope those measures will be included as the legislative process moves forward.
The American Benefits Council (the Council) supports the Substance Use–Disorder Prevention that Promotes Opioid Recovery and Treatment (SUPPORT) for Patients and Communities Act (H.R. 6). We urge Congress to approve this measure as an important step toward addressing the nation's opioid addiction crisis.
Bicameral agreement on opioid legislation has been reached by U.S. House of Representatives and Senate negotiators, clearing the way for both houses to approve the measure and send it to President Trump's desk for his signature. The final bill does not include a harmful revenue-raising provision opposed by the Council.
On behalf of the American Benefits Council (the Council), I am writing today to express support for the Save American Workers Act (H.R. 3798). We urge the U.S. House of Representatives to approve this measure as an important step toward strengthening the employer-provided health coverage system, upon which 178 million Americans rely today.
I am writing on behalf of the American Benefits Council (Council) to offer assistance with respect to the Family Savings Act of 2018 (H.R. 6757). The measure includes some very valuable provisions. There are also a number of non-controversial bipartisan bicameral proposals that should be added and other provisions to be modified to strengthen retirement security.
