The 2026 midterm elections will reset the political landscape — and organizations across industries will need to understand what comes next. Join Foley & Lardner for a timely post-election briefing that goes beyond the headlines to examine the results, the new balance of power in Congress, and the Trump Administration’s likely response.

Foley partner Judy Waltz, chair of the Health Care Practice Group, is speaking in the California Society for Healthcare Attorneys’ upcoming Fall Seminar in the session “Medicare & Medicaid Administrative Enforcement: Emerging Trends.”

Trump accounts are not just a matter for families; they also give employers a new tax-advantaged benefit to offer to employees. The OBBBA created “Trump accounts,” or tax-advantaged savings accounts for children, and a companion tax break that lets employers contribute up to $2,500 per employee each year to the accounts of employees and their dependents.

For many companies, the end of the plan year brings an unwelcome headache: the DCAP fails its nondiscrimination testing, and HCEs learn that their elections must be capped or that part of their benefit will be taxable. Newly proposed regulations provide some relief for these issues.

By now you have likely heard that the EEOC has significantly reduced the time to respond to a notice of a pending EEOC charge. Historically, when a respondent received a notice of an EEOC charge (which are delivered via e-correspondence — so be on the lookout for e-mail from the EEOC), it typically had at least 30 days to provide a response. That 30-day period could oftentimes be extended by two to four weeks by filing an online request for the extension, which the EEOC would usually grant so long as the respondent could illustrate that it was working diligently to respond,not anymore.

If you work in a public company environment but have been ignoring blockchain technology, you should probably read this report. The SEC has issued an order and request for comments via Release No. 34-106402, available at https://www.sec.gov/rules-regulations/2026/09/4-927 (the Order), creating a time-limited (five-year) framework for secondary trading of tokenized national market system (NMS) stocks through permissioned automated market makers (AMMs) and liquidity pools. Because every stock listed on the New York Stock Exchange or the Nasdaq Stock Market is an NMS stock, the Order is potentially applicable to the stock of most major U.S. public companies.
