On June 26, 2015, the Supreme Court of the United States ruled in Obergefell v. Hodges that it is unconstitutional for a state to ban same-sex couples from exercising the fundamental right to marry. All states are now required to permit same-sex couples to marry and to recognize same-sex marriages validly entered into in other jurisdictions.
McDermott Will & Emery invites you to a webcast to discuss the impact of this landmark decision on employee benefit plan sponsors and to address key considerations for employer-provided plans, including:
-
An up-to-date description of federal and state taxation of health and welfare benefits
-
A summary of steps employers must take in light of the Supreme Court's decision
-
The future of employee benefits for unmarried same-sex and opposite-sex partners
