Washington Saves @wasaves.bsky.social · 29/09/2026

The role of the employer is to register, share information, and process payroll deductions. We know you have enough to do. We make it easy. #WashingtonSaves #SaveToday #ThriveTomorrow

No employer contributions or program fees. No complex administration. No liability for employee account performance.

Washington Saves addresses the key reasons employers say they don't offer retirement savings programs: Cost, complexity, and company liability. 🧵

2/3 We let him in on a secret: Washington Saves uses automatic payroll contributions. His retirement savings can build quietly in the background while he adjusts to life as a local celebrity. It is one simple way for Jimothy to help out his future self. 🌅

We were talking with Seattle Resident and Local Cryptid Jimothy the other day. He confessed that he always forgets to move money into his Individual Retirement Account (IRA). 🧵 1/3

For employers, it means a limited role: register, provide employee information, and facilitate payroll deductions. Clear expectations now. A smoother launch later. Save Today. Thrive Tomorrow. #WashingtonSaves #EmployerInfo #SmallBusinessWA (3/3)

Washington Saves @wasaves.bsky.social · 06/08/2026

For savers, the idea is straightforward: • Access to a retirement account at work • Payroll contributions • Saver choice at each step (2/3)

Preparing for WA Saves: What Employers Need to Know

Washington Saves @wasaves.bsky.social · 16/07/2026

We are partnering with Washington Hospitality Association for a webinar on July 22 from 10:00 - 11:00 a.m. on what employers need to know about Washington Saves. 🧵

Washington Saves @wasaves.bsky.social · 07/07/2026

Most people change employers several times over a career. When retirement savings follows the worker — not the job — it becomes easier to track, easier to manage, and less likely to be forgotten. Washington Saves was built with that in mind. #WashingtonSaves #Portability #RetirementSecurity

Washington Saves @wasaves.bsky.social · 30/06/2026

People rarely delay saving for retirement because they "don't care." They delay because life is busy. Automation does not remove choice. It removes friction. That's the idea behind Washington Saves. #WashingtonSaves #Retirement #BuildingWealth

000

Washington Saves @wasaves.bsky.social · 23/06/2026

Washington Saves exists because 1.2 million WA workers don't currently have access to a retirement plan at work. Access is the starting point. Choice remains yours. Automatic enrollment. Your IRA. Opt out anytime. Over the next year, we'll explain every piece of it. Save Today. Thrive Tomorrow.

Washington Saves is here to help bring access for the 1.2 million Washington workers who currently cannot save for retirement through their workplace. If you have questions, please email us at info@wasaves.wa.gov This program is stronger when people understand it. More to come. #WashingtonSaves

Washington Saves @wasaves.bsky.social · 04/06/2026

Changing jobs often means losing track of retirement accounts. That’s not because people don’t care. It’s because managing multiple accounts is complicated. Washington Saves was designed to simplify that. One account. Any job. Less complicated. #RetirementMadeEasy #SetAndForget #WashingtonSaves

Washington Saves @wasaves.bsky.social · 02/06/2026

Building awareness takes time. Our focus is making sure people understand how Washington Saves works and what it means for them. Clear information helps people make better decisions #FinancialClarity #InformedDecisions #WashingtonSaves

Washington Saves @wasaves.bsky.social · 28/05/2026

Saving for the future rarely feels urgent. That’s why it often gets postponed. Washington Saves makes starting easier by changing the default, while preserving choice. Getting started matters more than starting perfectly. #StartToday #MoneyGoals #SmallStepsBigResults #WashingtonSaves

000

Washington Saves @wasaves.bsky.social · 26/05/2026

Retirement savings shouldn’t require: • Extensive research • Complex decisions • Perfect timing It should be accessible when you are ready. Washington Saves is about removing barriers so more people can get started.

The goal of Washington Saves is simple: expand retirement access for 1.2 million workers who don’t have it today. We’re focused on access, clarity, and choice. Coming in 2027. #WashingtonSaves #RetirementAccess

Washington Saves @wasaves.bsky.social · 12/05/2026

Some people may have concerns about auto-enrollment. If this is you - let's set your mind at ease. You can opt out immediately and easily. Auto-enrollment sets a default. It doesn't remove choice. It gives you that boost to start saving now. Washington Saves is built so control stays with you.

000

Washington Saves @wasaves.bsky.social · 07/05/2026

Q&A: What do you actually control with Washington Saves? The short answer: everything that matters. You choose whether to participate. You choose how much to save. You choose your investment approach. Washington Saves exists to make access easier, not to take away control. #WashingtonSaves

Fun fact: Most people have more streaming subscriptions than retirement accounts Netflix: ✓ Hulu: ✓ Disney+: ✓ Spotify: ✓ retirement account: ✓... Washington Saves makes retirement access easier than a subscription. Except this subscription helps your future.

Washington Saves @wasaves.bsky.social · 14/04/2026

Basically: if your job doesn't offer retirement and you've been meaning to start saving but haven't... Washington Saves is for you. You’re not alone. 1.2 million Washington workers fit that description.

000

Washington Saves @wasaves.bsky.social · 14/04/2026

Also for people who: Change jobs every few years Work multiple part-time gigs Are building careers but jobs don't offer benefits yet Want to save but keep putting it off because it's complicated

100

Washington Saves @wasaves.bsky.social · 14/04/2026

It's for people working at: Coffee shops without retirement plans Small retail stores Restaurants and bars Small construction companies Local businesses Nonprofits with tight budgets OR anywhere your employer doesn't offer a plan

Someone asked us, "Who is Washington Saves designed for?" Great question. Here's the answer 🧵

100

Washington Saves @wasaves.bsky.social · 09/04/2026

The thing about retirement savings is everyone knows it's important. But "important" doesn't mean "urgent." Things that aren't urgent often get "later'd" forever. Washington Saves makes it automatic. You can opt out. The default is "saving" instead of "meaning to save" Tiny shift. Huge difference.

000

Washington Saves @wasaves.bsky.social · 07/04/2026

The structure is designed to make starting easier while keeping decisions in your control. Access is built in. Choice remains yours. #WashingtonSaves

000

Washington Saves @wasaves.bsky.social · 07/04/2026

You decide what happens next. You can: • Stay enrolled • Adjust your contribution • Opt out at any time There is no penalty for opting out.

100

Washington Saves @wasaves.bsky.social · 07/04/2026

If you’re an employee, you are automatically enrolled into an Individual Retirement Account (IRA). The account is in your name and held by a private financial institution.

100

Washington Saves @wasaves.bsky.social · 07/04/2026

If your employer doesn’t sponsor a retirement plan, they register with Washington Saves and facilitate payroll contributions. That’s the employer’s role — limited and clearly defined.

100

Washington Saves @wasaves.bsky.social · 07/04/2026

Washington Saves is designed to be simple to understand and easy to use. Here’s how it works, step by step. 🧵

100

Washington Saves @wasaves.bsky.social · 02/04/2026

Retirement savings shouldn't require: a finance degree hours of research decision paralysis remembering to do it It should just... happen. Washington Saves makes access possible. Coming in 2027.

000

Washington Saves @wasaves.bsky.social · 01/04/2026

Real talk from the Washington Saves team We're not creating a new kind of retirement account. IRAs have existed for decades. We're making them accessible to people whose jobs don't offer retirement. We’re removing barriers for those people whose jobs don’t offer 401(k)s.
