S5395 - Sponsor Memo

 
BILL NUMBER: S5395

SPONSOR: SAVINO
 
TITLE OF BILL:

An act to amend the general business law, in relation to the secure
choice savings program

 
PURPOSE OR GENERAL IDEA OF BILL:

The purpose of this bill is to create a self-sufficient retirement
savings program in the form of an automatic enrollment payroll deduction
1RA, and establish an administrative board responsible for promoting
greater retirement savings for private sector employees in a convenient,
low-cost, and transferable manner.

 
SUMMARY OF PROVISIONS:

Section one of the bill would amend section 1301 of the general business
law to make enrollment into the New York state secure choice savings
program automatic.

Section two of the bill would amend section 1304 of the general business
law to allow employees to opt out of the secure choice savings program.

Section three of the bill would amend section 1309 of the general busi-
ness law to require employee informational materials to include an
explanation of how employees can opt out of the program after being
enrolled and a form for an employee to note his or her decision to opt
out of program participation, and to allow new employees to opt out of
the program.

Section four of the bill would amend section 1313 of the general busi-
ness law to provide that an employer is not liable for an employee's
decision to opt out of the program.

Section five of the bill would amend section 1310 of the general busi-
ness law to require participating employers to have payroll deposit
savings arrangements to allow each employee to participate in the
program. This section would also require participating employers to
automatically enroll in the program each of their employees who has not
opted out of participation in the program using the form described in
this bill and to provide payroll deduction retirement savings arrange-
ments for such employees and deposit, on behalf of such employees, these
funds into the program.

Section six of the bill would amend section 1300 of the general business
law to modify the definition of "employer" to mean a person or entity
that (i) has at all times during the previous calendar year employed at
least ten employees in the state, (ii) has been in business at least two
years, and (iii) has not offered a qualified retirement plan in the
preceding two years.

Section seven of the bill would provide for an immediate effective date.

 
CURRENT LAW:

Chapter 55 of the Laws of 2018 PART X created the New York state secure
choice savings program act This bill would amend the original bill to
remove references to 'small employer' and to amend additional provisions
of the general business law to ensure that enrollment in the program is
automatic while also allowing for employees to opt out of participation.

 
JUSTIFICATION:

According to Georgetown University Center for Retirement Initiatives
during the 2020 legislative sessions, at least 20 states and cities
introduced legislation to establish new programs or form study groups to
explore their options. Since 2012, at least 45 states have acted to
implement a new program, study program options, or consider legislation
to establish state-facilitated retirement savings programs. Today, there
are 12 states and 1 city that have enacted new programs for private
sector workers.

This bill seeks to improve the New York Secure Choice Savings Program
Act - by expanding the employers in the program and making the program
mandatory.

 
PRIOR LEGISLATIVE HISTORY:

2021 Session - New Bill - amending Chapter 55 of the Laws of 2018 (Simi-
lar to S4344B of 2017/18 Sessions)

 
EFFECTIVE DATE:
