Senate Joint Resolution 016 by Senator Linstad and Representative Stewart R. Concerning the improvement of retirement readiness and financial well-being.
Senator Linstad. Thank you, Madam President. I move for the adoption of Senate Joint Resolution 16 and ask that it be read at length.
Will the clerk please read SGR 016 at length?
Whereas Colorado has one of the strongest retirement systems in the United States, The Colorado Public Employees Retirement Association, PARA, provides retirement and other benefits to the public employees of more than 400 government agencies and public entities in Colorado. And whereas PARA is a substitute for Social Security for most of these public employees, offering two plan options, the Define Benefit DB plan and the Define Contribution DC plan, together these plans serve approximately 226,000 active public employees. And whereas PARA also offers voluntary savings plans, the PARA plus 401k and 457 plans, to eligible public employees who elect to supplement their DB and DC retirement plans. And whereas a recent study by the Colorado State Auditor found that public employees who chose the PARA DB plan overwhelmingly cited the guarantee of lifetime income as the primary reason, and employees who chose the PARA DC plan overwhelmingly cited portability as the primary reason. and whereas Colorado institutions of higher education have long offered defined contribution plans with guaranteed lifetime income investment options for their participants, this was done to ensure these employees have planned portability with a guaranteed income option. And whereas evidence from program evaluations indicates that well-designed financial education in schools and workplaces can increase knowledge and change key behaviors to improve retirement security, especially when combined with structural reforms such as automatic enrollment employer match incentives access to lifetime income options and default investments within retirement plans and access to one counseling And whereas Colorado Para continues to be an important driver of economic activity for the state's economy, providing over $4 billion annually in retirement contributions to Colorado residents, and whereas retirement income serves as a reliable economic driver, generating multiplier effects as beneficiaries' expenditures circulate through local markets. This consistent spending pattern supports employment, sustains local businesses, and enhances statewide economic resilience and diversification. Now, therefore, be it resolved by the Senate of the 75th General Assembly of the State of Colorado, the House of Representatives concurring herein, one, that the Colorado General Assembly recognizes the importance of retirement security for the people and economic viability of Colorado and encourages workers to seek out financial education to improve their retirement readiness and confidence so that they may retire with dignity. Two, that to help public employees of para-employers gain access to an adequate amount of lifetime income the Colorado General Assembly should consider adding lifetime lifetime income options to the para DC plan and the voluntary savings plans to ensure public employees have access to guaranteed income in retirement similar to the para DB plan design be it further resolved the copies of this joint resolution be sent to members of the Senate Finance Committee the House Finance Committee the Senate Business Labor and Technology Committee the House Business Affairs and Labor Committee the Pension Review Commission the Pension Review Subcommittee and the Joint Budget Committee
Is there any further discussion? Senator Linstead.
Thank you, Madam Chair. As the youngest member of the state Senate, I think it's important that we stand together to remember that retirement savings are something that everyone should be concerned about. it's vital for our state for our stable economy to have retirees with lifetime income and savings so that they can be thriving and surviving and we have 226 thousand para members here in the state of Colorado that rely on us to make sure we get this right somewhere in the building today we have members of TIA and para around for this resolution so say hi if you see them thank you very much for your consideration today.
Senator Colker.
Thank you, Madam President. Members, most of you know that I'm a certified financial planner. My day job is to help people save for retirement, to support their budgets, to plan ahead. We know that it takes 70% to 80% of your highest lifetime income to retire. That's kind of our rule of thumb. and I've never heard anyone tell me that they saved too much money. So I'm in full support of this resolution and full support of people, more information going out so that we all have an understanding of what is available to us, especially as state government employees, what's available through PARA, also being the chair of the Pension Review Subcommittee and the Pension Review Committee. So full support of this and I urge your support. Thank you.
