“Hardworking Rhode Islanders deserve to retire with dignity and that is why we are thrilled to celebrate the passage of (RISavers, formerly Secure Choice),” said Catherine Taylor, AARP Rhode Island State Director. “On behalf of our members and the 172,000 Rhode Island workers who do not currently have access to retirement savings options on the job – AARP Rhode Island commends House and Senate leadership for uniting on this vital legislation that will make it easier for workers to build towards a secure retirement and plan for their futures."

House Bill 7127: Sponsored by Chairman Evan P. Shanley
