A new nationwide public opinion research report produced by the National Institute on Retirement Security (NIRS) finds overwhelming support for Congressional action to provide all Americans with access to a new type of privately run pension plan.
The research also finds that 85% of Americans remain highly anxious about their retirement prospects, and see traditional pensions a way to improve their retirement readiness. According to NIRS, even though their retirement is in the distant future, virtually all millennial generation members believe the nation’s retirement system is under stress and needs to be fixed.
