Senators Van Hollen, Klobuchar, Schmitt, and Moran reintroduce bipartisan ABLE Employment Flexibility Act for worker savings.
Quiver AI Summary
U.S. Senator Chris Van Hollen (D-Md.) has partnered with Senators Amy Klobuchar (D-Minn.), Eric Schmitt (R-Mo.), and Jerry Moran (R-Kan.) to reintroduce the ABLE Employment Flexibility Act. This bipartisan legislation aims to allow employers to contribute to employees' Achieving a Better Life Experience (ABLE) accounts instead of traditional retirement plans.
The bill seeks to assist workers with disabilities in saving for their long-term needs while enabling financial security through employment. Advocates, including Van Hollen and Klobuchar, emphasize that this legislation would offer individuals with disabilities more opportunities to build savings without compromising access to crucial federal benefits.
Schmitt highlighted that the act is meant to ensure that individuals with disabilities can access the same employment benefits as their peers, facilitating a stronger financial future. Moran added that the proposed changes enhance the original ABLE program, making it easier for individuals with disabilities to save for their futures.
