There is bipartisan agreement that too many Americans do not set aside sufficient resources to live comfortably in retirement.

At issue is a so-called 'firewall' in the law that denies subsidies to workers whose employers offer quality, affordable coverage. The firewall applies to plans with premiums that cost less than 9.5 percent of a worker's income. If a worker has to dole out more than that amount to buy coverage, the employer coverage is considered unaffordable and the worker is eligible for subsidies to buy coverage on the new exchanges.
