The American Council of Life Insurers invested in U.S. children’s financial literacy Wednesday.

The ACLI hosted the release of the Council for Economic Education’s 2020 Survey of  the States, in Washington, at the ACLI’s offices on Constitution Avenue.

The Council for Economic Education supports economics and personal finance educational efforts in K-12 schools.
