ERISA’s 30th

I’m overdue in acknowledging ERISA’s 30th Anniversary. Back on Labor Day of 1974, President Ford signed into law the Employee Retirement Income Security Act. View the signing here as well as a statement from President Ford regarding the importance of the Act. It is interesting to look back on President Ford’s statement and to think about how ERISA may, or may not, have created a “brighter future” or “solid protection” for “men and women of our labor force.”
