Federal Policy Update: New Opportunities for Employer Benefits

A practical discussion of recent federal changes affecting HR and employee benefits:

  • Paid Family and Medical Leave: Using the newly permanent federal employer tax credit for qualifying wages or paid-leave insurance premiums.
  • Employer-Provided Childcare: Exploring the expanded federal tax credit, including partnerships with childcare providers and other employers.
  • Prescription Drug Benefits: Understanding new PBM transparency requirements, employer fiduciary responsibilities, rebates, fees, and potential plan savings.

Cohort discussion: Are employers leaving federal tax benefits or healthcare savings on the table because HR, benefits advisers, payroll, and tax professionals are not coordinating?

What's at Stake This November: Washington Updates Every Christian Employer Should Know

Presented by Margaret Iuculano, President of Christian Employers Alliance — Moderated by Phil Bell, Senior Advisor to the President

Decisions being made in Washington could significantly affect how Christian employers hire, manage their workforce, provide healthcare and other benefits, and operate according to their religious convictions.

Join Margaret Iuculano and Phil Bell for a focused, 30-minute examination of six federal proposals and policy developments involving labor relations, religious-liberty protections, worker classification, artificial intelligence in hiring, and employer-sponsored healthcare. Using CEA's Federal Bill Tracker, they will explain what Congress is considering, how these measures could affect employers, and what Christian business and ministry leaders should be watching as November approaches.

No political theater -- just a clear look at the legislation, the potential workplace consequences, and the questions employers should be asking now.

Six proposals. Thirty minutes. The Washington intelligence Christian employers need to prepare.
