‘ERISA at 50’ Symposium Covers Key Retirement Issues
Gomez addresses the symposium
The Academy hosted a symposium Tuesday, part of this year’s “ERISA at 50” series marking the 50th anniversary of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. It featured retirement experts and actuaries who offered different perspectives on the landmark law, including Retirement Vice President Jason Russell, Pension Committee Chairperson Grace Lattyak, and Senior Retirement Fellow Linda K. Stone, who each moderated sessions. The featured speaker was U.S. Employee Benefits Security Administration Assistant Secretary Lisa Gomez, who highlighted the current administration’s priorities in this area. Look for more coverage in the upcoming Retirement Report. The series will continue through the fall, with additional webinars and published materials, including an issue brief that will focus on the impact ERISA has had on health insurance.
