Jackson Women's Health Org., 142 S. Ct. 2228 (2022). We discuss the impact of the Dobbs decision on employer benefit plans with Eric Gregory. Eric is a partner in the labor and employment group of Dickinson Wright PLLC. As Eric relates, as a result of the Dobbs decision, some states now ban abortions, restrict them, or even criminalize the exercise of abortion rights. The impact is to cause employers to have to navigate different state laws, compliance with which may depend on the states in which the employers operate and where their employees live.
