New Spending Package Includes Sweeping Retirement Plan Changes (SECURE Act)

Posted on 01/30/2020
Written by Perry Shulman Leave a Comment

The $1.4 trillion spending package enacted on December 20, 2019, included the Setting Every Community Up for Retirement Enhancement (SECURE) Act, which had overwhelmingly passed the House of Representatives in the spring of 2019, but then subsequently stalled in the Senate. The SECURE Act represents the most sweeping set of changes to retirement legislation in more than a decade.

While many of the provisions offer enhanced opportunities for individuals and small business owners, there is one notable drawback for investors with significant assets in traditional IRAs and retirement plans. These individuals will likely want to revisit their estate-planning strategies to prevent their heirs from potentially facing unexpectedly high tax bills.

All provisions take effect on or after January 1, 2020, unless otherwise noted.

New York City is on the move with the appointment of 18 new (additional) Age-friendly NYC Commission members.  This was recently announced by the de Blasio Administration in partnership with the New York City Council and the New York Academy of Medicine.  The Commission, as a whole, is comprised of noted leaders from government, nonprofit, business, education and health care.  Please see link:  https://www1.nyc.gov/site/dfta/about/pr-De-Blasio-announces-reseating-of-the-age-friendly-NYC-commission.page

NYC continues to identify and implement a number of initiatives to address the challenges older New Yorkers face.  NYC also continues to be recognized as leader of the age-friendly movement nationally.

Thanks to Orion Strategic Advisory Board member, Sharon Lewis, for bringing this development to light.
