Washington, DC – On April 28, Financial Literacy and Wealth Creation Caucus Co-Chairs Young Kim (CA-40) and Joyce Beatty (OH-03) introduced a bipartisan resolution (H.Res.291) honoring April as Financial Literacy Month.
“Taking control of one’s finances is imperative for taking control of one’s future,” said Congresswoman Kim. “Financial literacy tools can equip individuals and families to make a budget, grow savings, invest, prepare for retirement, and avoid financial concerns such as fraud or debt. I’m proud to join Congresswoman Beatty to recognize April as Financial Literacy Month and work as co-chairs of the Financial Literacy and Wealth Creation Caucus. I will keep working to protect the American dream for future generations.”
“Financial education is essential to ensure that Americans are prepared to make sound financial decisions that facilitate wealth-building,” said Congresswoman Beatty. “Planning, saving, and investing for the future is important at every stage of life, and I am pleased to see the great strides made in both the public and private sector toward financial capability in America since Congress first recognized Financial Literacy Month nearly 20 years ago.”
Beatty continued, “I am proud to work with Congresswoman Kim, the Jump$tart Coalition and many others, not only during Financial Literacy Month, but in ongoing collaboration in pursuit of this cause.”
Cosponsors of H.Res. 291 include Representatives Emanuel Cleaver (MO-05), Byron Donalds (FL-19), Brian Fitzpatrick (PA-01), Sylvia Garcia (TX-29), Wiley Nickel (NC-13), and Nikema Williams (GA-05).
