Bill overview
The Strengthening Benefit Plans Act of 2025 aims to improve retirement benefits for active employees by allowing employers to transfer excess health assets from retiree health accounts to pension plans. Specifically, it permits the transfer of assets exceeding 125% of an employer's retiree health plan liabilities to fund active employee benefits. The bill also includes provisions to facilitate the transfer of surplus assets from defined benefit pension plans to defined contribution plans, while maintaining certain benefit levels and requiring notice to participants. It also includes amendments to the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 to support these transfers.
