Washington DC<\/span><\/i><\/b> \u2013 Los senadores estadounidenses de Oreg\u00f3n, Ron Wyden y Jeff Merkley, dijeron hoy que copatrocinan la legislaci\u00f3n de la Ley de Protecci\u00f3n de Jubilaci\u00f3n de Mujeres de 2021 (WRPA, por sus siglas en ingl\u00e9s) para abordar la brecha de jubilaci\u00f3n y reforzar la seguridad financiera de las mujeres.<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

\n

\u201cAl salir de una pandemia en la que m\u00e1s de 4 de cada 10 mujeres esperan ver impactos a largo plazo en sus finanzas, es hora de invertir en igualdad econ\u00f3mica para que todos tengan la oportunidad de una jubilaci\u00f3n estable y segura\u201d. <\/span><\/b>dijo Wyden. \u201cLa legislaci\u00f3n WRPA cerrar\u00eda muchas de las lagunas en nuestra ley financiera que actualmente est\u00e1n socavando el futuro financiero de las mujeres estadounidenses\u201d.<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

\n

\u201cLos impactos econ\u00f3micos de la crisis del coronavirus han reca\u00eddo especialmente sobre los hombros de las mujeres trabajadoras de Estados Unidos, que pasaron de asumir la mayor\u00eda de las responsabilidades del cuidado de los ni\u00f1os a tener dificultades para trabajar sin la ayuda de la infraestructura de cuidado infantil que necesitan y merecen. Esa disparidad es a\u00fan m\u00e1s pronunciada entre las mujeres de color, lo cual es inaceptable\u201d. <\/span><\/b>dijo Merkley. \u201cNecesitamos un plan integral para abordar las desigualdades de g\u00e9nero en la seguridad financiera, y ese plan debe incluir asegurarse de que esta pandemia no afecte negativamente el futuro financiero a largo plazo de las mujeres y los ahorros para la jubilaci\u00f3n\u201d.<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

\n

La reintroducci\u00f3n de la WRPA se produce a la luz de la pandemia de COVID-19 y la crisis econ\u00f3mica que ha afectado desproporcionadamente a las mujeres, en particular a las mujeres de color, con un encuesta reciente<\/a> encontrando que el 40 por ciento de las mujeres dijeron que esperaban que el a\u00f1o pasado tuviera un impacto a largo plazo en sus finanzas.<\/span><\/p>\n

Incluso antes de la pandemia de COVID-19, datos<\/a> ha demostrado durante mucho tiempo que el futuro financiero de las mujeres se ve socavado por otros factores. De acuerdo con la Centro Nacional de Derecho de la Mujer<\/a>, la mujer promedio pierde m\u00e1s de $400,000 durante una carrera de cuarenta a\u00f1os debido a la desigualdad salarial, lo que requiere que las mujeres trabajen durante casi una d\u00e9cada m\u00e1s que sus contrapartes masculinas para compensar la brecha salarial de g\u00e9nero. Las mujeres tambi\u00e9n tienen m\u00e1s probabilidades de ser trabajadoras a tiempo parcial, lo que puede limitar su acceso a los planes de jubilaci\u00f3n patrocinados por el empleador. Tambi\u00e9n es posible que se les impida asegurar los recursos de jubilaci\u00f3n a los que tienen derecho despu\u00e9s de un divorcio debido a barreras como reglas complejas y honorarios legales, como se discuti\u00f3 en una Informe de la GAO 2020<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

La WRPA incluye un conjunto de soluciones que funcionan para cerrar la brecha de jubilaci\u00f3n al abordar algunos de los desaf\u00edos que afectan de manera desproporcionada a las mujeres mientras planifican su futuro financiero. La legislaci\u00f3n fortalecer\u00eda las protecciones al consumidor para salvaguardar los ahorros para la jubilaci\u00f3n, aumentar\u00eda la elegibilidad para los planes de ahorro para la jubilaci\u00f3n patrocinados por el empleador para trabajadores a tiempo parcial, aumentar\u00eda el acceso a la informaci\u00f3n sobre herramientas de ahorro y jubilaci\u00f3n, y ayudar\u00eda a las mujeres con bajos ingresos y sobrevivientes de abuso dom\u00e9stico a obtener la jubilaci\u00f3n. prestaciones a las que tienen derecho tras un divorcio.<\/span><\/p>\n

En el Senado, la WRPA est\u00e1 dirigida por la Senadora Patty Murray, D-Wash. Junto con Wyden y Merkley, est\u00e1 copatrocinado por los senadores Blumenthal, D-Conn., Hirono, D-Hawaii, Klobuchar, D-Minn., Feinstein, D-Calif., Smith, D-Minn., Warren, D-Mass. , Cantwell, D-Wash., Sanders, I-Vt., Baldwin, D-Wis., Bennet, D-Colo., Menendez, DN.J., Cortez Masto, D-Nev., Kaine, D-Va. , Padilla, D-Calif., Rosen, D-Nev., Brown, D-Ohio, Gillibrand, DN.Y., Stabenow, D-Mich., Durbin, D-Ill., Duckworth, D-Ill., Shaheen , DN.H., y Booker, DN.J. <\/span><\/p>\n

En la C\u00e1mara, est\u00e1 codirigido por los Representantes Lauren Underwood, D-Ill., Jan Schakowsky, D-Ill., Suzanne Bonamici, D-Ore., y Donald Norcross, DN.J. <\/span><\/p>\n

\n

\u201cLas mujeres, especialmente las mujeres con bajos ingresos y las mujeres de color, enfrentaban una crisis de jubilaci\u00f3n incluso antes de la pandemia. Sin una acci\u00f3n r\u00e1pida y espec\u00edfica, las mujeres sentir\u00e1n el impacto del \u00faltimo a\u00f1o y medio de devastaci\u00f3n econ\u00f3mica por el resto de sus vidas. La Ley de Protecci\u00f3n de la Jubilaci\u00f3n de la Mujer tomar\u00e1 medidas significativas para salvaguardar y proteger la seguridad de la jubilaci\u00f3n de la mujer\u201d, <\/span><\/b>dijo Amy Matsui, Directora de Seguridad de Ingresos en el Centro Nacional de Leyes de la Mujer.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cAplaudimos al Senador Murray y la Congresista Underwood por sus esfuerzos para abordar las desigualdades que enfrentan las mujeres en el sistema de jubilaci\u00f3n. La Ley de Protecci\u00f3n de la Jubilaci\u00f3n de la Mujer de 2021 ampliar\u00e1 la cobertura para las trabajadoras a tiempo parcial, brindar\u00e1 ayuda a las mujeres para que obtengan una parte de los beneficios de jubilaci\u00f3n de su exc\u00f3nyuge en el momento del divorcio y mejorar\u00e1 los derechos conyugales en los planes 401k, todas medidas muy importantes para mejorar la seguridad de la jubilaci\u00f3n. para mujeres," <\/span><\/b>dijo Karen Friedman, Directora Ejecutiva del Centro de Derechos de Pensi\u00f3n. <\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
