From the supplier: Several new pieces of legislation for the 105th Congress are comprised of acronyms. The WISE bill, which stands for Women's Investment and Savings Equity Act, would expand the individual retirement account for homemakers by allowing 'catch up' contributions to 401(k) retirement accounts. The SAVER bill, which stands for Savings Are Vital to Everyone's Retirement Act of 1997, would require education to ensure all US workers knew the importance of retirement savings. Finally, the CHILD bill, which stands for Child Health Insurance and Lower Deficit Act, would provide health insurance for uninsured children through an increase in the cigarette tax.
