(Community Matters) From my friends at the New America Foundation

Senators Schumer and Dodd jointly introduced the ASPIRE Act. The bill supports one of our flagship proposals– to create a universal system of accounts-at-birth which are progressively funded and would enable children and their families to pursue higher education, responsible homeownership, and a more secure retirement. The time has come for a major public discussion about the way we plan for retirement, support savings and encourage homeownership. We look forward to that discussion and believe the ASPIRE Act can play a critical role in helping promote a more responsible, sustainable system.
