Summary of Bill HR 3063

Bill 118 HR 3063, also known as the Retirement Fairness for Charities and Educational Institutions Act of 2023, aims to provide relief for certain nonprofit organizations that sponsor retirement plans for their employees. The bill seeks to address the unique challenges faced by these organizations in complying with current retirement plan regulations.

Specifically, the bill proposes several key provisions. First, it would allow nonprofit organizations to make catch-up contributions to their retirement plans for employees who are age 50 or older. This provision is intended to help older employees who may not have been able to save enough for retirement due to lower salaries or other financial constraints.

Second, the bill would provide a safe harbor for nonprofit organizations that sponsor multiple employer plans (MEPs). This safe harbor would protect these organizations from certain fiduciary responsibilities and liabilities associated with MEPs, making it easier for them to offer retirement benefits to their employees. Additionally, the bill would streamline the process for nonprofit organizations to correct errors in their retirement plans, reducing the administrative burden and costs associated with compliance. Overall, the Retirement Fairness for Charities and Educational Institutions Act of 2023 aims to support nonprofit organizations in providing retirement benefits to their employees, ultimately helping to ensure financial security for those who dedicate their careers to serving others.
