American Benefits Council
Description
The American Benefits Council (ABC) is a Washington D.C.-based employee benefits public policy organization advocating for employers that are dedicated to the achievement of best-in-class solutions that protect and encourage the health and financial well-being of their workers, retirees and families.
The Council works closely with Congress, the White House, executive branch agencies and the courts to champion legislation, regulation and legal rulings favorable to our members' needs, and to defend the employer-sponsored benefits system from proposals that would add burdens, liabilities and costs.
The Council engages extensively in the international arena on behalf of its multi-national companies – both in terms of public policy initiatives, and information-sharing of best practices and provides advocacy, and benefits strategy and compliance assistance through our network of global partner organizations.
The Council is committed to both broad-based policy advocacy, as well as specialized assistance to member companies. We are a technical resource on benefits issues for lawmakers, the media and other industry trade associations. The Council frequently forges alliances with other public policy organizations to develop and communicate a collective business community position on benefits proposals.
