HRE Health & Benefits Leadership Conference 2018

GENERAL SESSION | Washington Update: Employee Benefits in a Midterm Election Year (Room Juniper 2 - 4)

05 Apr 18
8:00 AM - 9:00 AM

It seems like Congress and the new administration have barely settled in after the last election. But we are now just seven months away from Election Day 2018. The forthcoming election has implications for the kinds of issues Congress will – and will not – address. And, of course, the outcome of the election could have a profound impact on the agenda next year. Meanwhile, attention has turned to the regulatory arena where the executive branch has the best opportunity to put its imprint on health and retirement policy, regardless of legislative gridlock. Attendee-favorite James Klein returns with a thorough assessment of the political landscape and what it means for the health and retirement policy agenda.
