Summary

The bill establishes a new WisEARNS board attached to the state treasurer, a retirement‑savings program for employees whose employers do not offer a plan, and a dedicated trust fund.

The goal is to expand retirement savings coverage for low‑ and middle‑income workers while incentivizing employers to offer plans.
