The AARP Connecticut Work and Save Survey was conducted as a telephone survey among registered voters age 35-64 in Connecticut. The survey collected the opinions of Connecticut residents on retirement security, savings options, and a proposed state work and save legislation. The interviews were conducted in English by Precision Opinion from November 17th to November 25th, 2015. The sample utilized a voter list. The margin of sampling error for the sample of 1,000 for Connecticut is +/-3.2%.

Key findings include:

  • 3 in 5 voters support a state retirement savings plan.

  • Across political views, 8 in 10 voters agree that elected officials should support a retirement savings plan to help small business workers and help small businesses stay competitive.

  • Most wish they had saved more, and those without a workplace option would gladly take advantage if offered.

  • Over half of Connecticut registered voters have retirement savings.
