Retirement Security
All people deserve to retire with dignity, but almost half of all Americans are not covered by a retirement plan at their workplace. Low- and middle-income families face stagnant wages, increasing costs for life’s essentials, and other structural barriers to wealth-building. EOI advocates for the protection and expansion of Social Security at the national level via Social Security Works, and locally via Social Security Works – Washington. We are also engaged with local allies and stakeholders to design and implement a state-based retirement security program that will help ensure a secure retirement for all Washington residents, and provide a replicable policy template in other states.
