Wall Street picks up an ally in Congress, one with apparently no reservations about delaying a process that's been under way for years.

There are some things to dislike about some of the retirement-related provisions in President Obamas recently unveiled spending blueprint, but there also are a few items that we can all support.

The president's proposal could easily mean caps on retirement savings far lower than $3.4 million.

The White House says President Obama's retirement proposals would help 30 million additional workers find a way to save for retirement through their employers.

Matters at the PBGC arent as bad as they might have been at the Department of Veterans Affairs, but theres a definite overhaul in order.

The pension reforms Congress adopted will help save healthier multiemployer plans from being crippled by the obligations of their ailing, underfunded brethren.

Does any of this mean workers might have to save less and maybe retire sooner? Probably not.

Right before Thanksgiving, after years of delays and uncertainty, the Department of Labor officially signaled it plans to unveil its revamped fiduciary standard in January.
