House hearing: Experts testify tax code changes could cripple retirement savings

Published Updated 3 Min Read

Despite recent tax reform proposals, experts testified at a House committee hearing Tuesday that cutting the incentives for retirement plans would be detrimental to savings in this country.

Recent tax reform proposals include dramatic cuts in maximum contribution limits, a cap on the value of the current year’s exclusion for households making over a certain dollar amount, and conversion of the current year’s income exclusion to a credit, according to the American Society of Pension Professionals and Actuaries.
