A new roundtable research report, published today by the Employee Benefit Research Institute and the American Benefits Council, found that, despite its immense value to employee benefit plans, the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA) preemption framework is threatened by state and local lawmaking and evolving legal challenges. To mark the 50th anniversary of the passage of ERISA and to develop a better understanding of the value of ERISA preemption to workers and employers, EBRI and the American Benefits Council conducted a series of focus groups with benefits decision makers at large employers. Collectively, these companies employ over 600,000 workers, cover more than one million lives in health care programs and account for over $7 billion in health care spending. Large employers are not only more likely to be at the forefront of innovative benefits programs, but also more likely to operate and employ workers in multiple states.?As a result, these companies rely heavily upon ERISA preemption.

Results from the 2024 Spending in Retirement study released this week by the Employee Benefit Research Institute uncovered concerning trends on dampened spending expectations due to lack of sufficient savings, inflationary pressures and rising credit card debt. In addition, the 2024 survey is consistent with prior EBRI work showing a high proportion of current retirees retiring earlier than expected due to reasons beyond their control, such as health problems or disability and changes at their company like downsizing, closure or reorganization.
