Retirement Savings Expansion, Workplace Plans & the $1K Match — Practical Money Moves After Trump’s 2026 State of the Union

Zachary Mineur, CFA, CFP® in GoBankingRates | March 2026

Zachary Mineur was quoted in GOBankingRates discussing practical money moves Americans should consider following President Trump’s 2026 State of the Union, with a focus on the proposed expansion of retirement savings access for workers without employer-sponsored plans.

“Millions of Americans do not have access to a workplace plan and this expansion could provide a pathway to savings for low- and moderate-income workers that was not previously available to them. I suggest that for folks who may qualify, start working the $85 per month savings into their budget now. This is the amount they would need to contribute to earn the $1,000 match.”
