4.3: Pension Reform

Evaluate pension reform proposals to determine their likely effect on pension coverage for low-income households.

Other Information:

In collaboration with the Brookings Institution, we evaluate pension reform proposals to determine their likely effect on pension coverage for low-income households. Also, to help low-income families make high-return investments such as homeownership or a college education and to prepare for retirement, we promote asset building among these families. This work includes promoting policy improvements targeted to families who build modest assets through Individual Development Accounts or retirement accounts such as 401(k)s.
