TODAY, MAY 18, 2020, AARP STATE DIRECTOR NANCY McPHERSON SENT THE FOLLOWING LETTER TO GOVERNOR GAVIN NEWSOM:
SACRAMENTO – Today, AARP applauded the vote on the Assembly Floor (52-26) passing the California Secure Choice Retirement Savings Act (Senate Bill 1234), introduced by Senate President Pro Tem Kevin De León, back to the Senate for concurrence. AARP strongly supports SB 1234, which, if passed out of concurrence and signed by Governor Brown, would create an auto-enrolled, supplemental retirement savings program for more than 7 million private sector workers in California who do not have access to a retirement savings plan through their job.
AARP strongly believes that we must stand together to stop racism and work towards dismantling racist narratives.
