Letter to U.S. Senate on Congressional Review Act resolutions to overturn the Department of Labor rule on “Savings Arrangements Established by States for Non-Governmental Employees”

The Pension Rights Center sent a letter to key leadership in the U.S. Senate urging senators to vote against two resolutions that would overturn the common-sense rule issued by the Department of Labor in 2016 to expand retirement savings opportunities for private-sector workers who are not covered by an employer-sponsored retirement plan, such as a traditional pension or 401(k) plan.
