economic recovery; 
Whereas our Nation reaps the economic benefits of those who 
raise their literacy, numeracy, and English language 
skills; 
Whereas our Nation needs older adults to reenter the edu-
cation pipeline and transition to college if we are to meet 
the President’s goal of the highest proportion of college 
graduates by 2020 and if we are to be internationally 
competitive by 2025; 
Whereas the education skills of parents and reading to chil-
dren have a direct impact on the educational success of 
their children; 
Whereas, parental involvement is a key predictor of a child’s 
success, the level of parental involvement increases as the 
education level of the parent increases; 
Whereas parents in family literacy programs become more in-
volved in their children’s education and gain the tools 
necessary to obtain a job or find better employment; 
Whereas, as a result, children’s lives become more stable, and 
success in the classroom, and in all future endeavors, be-
comes more likely; 
Whereas studies show that two important factors that influ-
ence student achievement are the mother’s education level 
and poverty in the home, it is clear that if adults are not 
part of the learning equation, then there is no long-term 
solution to our Nation’s education challenges; 
Whereas many older people in the United States lack the 
reading, math, or English skills to read a prescription 
and follow medical instructions, endangering their lives 
and the lives of their loved ones;

Whereas people in the United States are living longer, and 
the cost of retirement is increasing significantly; 
Whereas Social Security remains the bedrock of retirement 
income for the great majority of the people of the United 
States but was never intended by Congress to be the sole 
source of retirement income for families; 
Whereas recent data from the Employee Benefit Research In-
stitute indicates that, in the United States, less than 2⁄3

ings of workers lags far behind the amount that will be 
needed to adequately fund their retirement years; 
Whereas financial literacy is an important factor in United 
States workers’ understanding of the true need to save

Whereas saving for one’s retirement is a key component to

Whereas the National Assessment of Adult Literacy reports 
that 90,000,000 adults lack the literacy, numeracy, or
