Worker Retirement Savings Access Act of 2026

Establish a federal website (TrumpIRA.gov) to expand American workers' access to retirement savings accounts, likely via simplified enrollment, auto-enrollment options, and promotion of tax-advantaged IRAs.

Constitutional concerns with the original

  1. Executive overstepped Article II by creating a new financial platform without statutory authority for tax incentives or mandates on private employers/banks (Article I, Section 8, Clause 1); potential Tenth Amendment violation if directing state/local or private action without congressional consent; branding raises Appropriations Clause issues if using funds for personal promotion.

Solution text

Section 1. Short Title. This Act may be cited as the 'Worker Retirement Savings Access Act of 2026'. Section 2. Establishment of WorkerIRA.gov. The Secretary of the Treasury, in coordination with the Department of Labor, shall establish and maintain a secure public website, WorkerIRA.gov, to help American workers aged 18-65 open and manage tax-advantaged individual retirement accounts (IRAs). The site will offer one-click enrollment linked to existing IRS-approved IRAs, optional auto-contribution from paychecks or gig income (with worker opt-out), and educational tools on retirement planning. No new taxes or mandates on employers; private financial institutions may voluntarily integrate via API. Section 3. Implementation and Protections. Treasury shall ensure data privacy under existing laws, with opt-in only and full worker control over funds. Gig economy platforms and small businesses can promote the site voluntarily. Annual reports to Congress on usage, savings rates, and costs. Section 4. Funding and Sunset. Funded as specified in operative provisions. This Act sunsets after 10 years unless reauthorized. Section 5. Oversight and Enforcement. As specified in operative provisions.

Bipartisan rationale

Democrats gain expanded retirement security for low-wage/gig workers without employer mandates (aligns with worker protections); Republicans secure personal savings choice, blocks tax hikes, and adds strict oversight to prevent bureaucracy (honors federalism and fiscal restraint); both prefer congressional control over executive fiat to protect institutional balance.
