Close but no cigar in early 2022
In early March, it was a case of close but no cigar, apparently. An effort to get SECURE 2.0 included in the Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2022—the 2,741-page omnibus bill released March 8 containing approximately $1.5 trillion in remaining fiscal 2022 spending came up short.
While Congressional leaders spent much of that day negotiating potential add-ons to the omnibus spending bill, the House’s Securing a Strong Retirement Act, and companion Senate bill The Retirement Security and Savings Act, were not among the bills making the final cut.
