Oregon Treasurer Ted Wheeler is being honored for his efforts to increase access to low-cost, high-quality retirement plans in his state and encourage people in Oregon to save more for retirement.
The National Conference on Public Employee Retirement Systems named Wheeler its Elected Official of the Year.
"Treasurer Wheeler recognizes that the private sector's retirement savings deficit poses an economic threat not just to individuals and families, but to local and national governments as well," said Hank Kim, NCPERS' executive director and counsel. "We applaud his efforts to bolster retirement savings in Oregon and nationally."
