Failing Retirement Savers: Examining Three Recent Labor Department Actions

The Committee held a virtual briefing to examine how recent Department of Labor’s actions have weaken retirement protections for workers. The briefing, entitled “Failing Retirement Savers: Examining Three Recent Labor Department Actions,” focused on how the Trump administration has taken steps that will erode retirement security for future retirees by exposing them to bad advice and greater risk while undermining accountability for unethical retirement advisors. 

The briefing included Barbara Roper, an expert on consumer and investor protection issues with the Consumer Federation of America (CFA), and Aron Szapiro, director of policy and research for Morningstar.
