2PM TODAY: HRC hosts live webchat on financial issues
April 14, 2009
Today at 2pm EST, I will serve as moderator for a live webchat on a variety of financial issues currently facing members of the LGBT community. During the discussion, HRC and several financial experts will highlight the unique legal inequalities and hurdles facing the LGBT community with regard to financial, tax and estate planning issues. Federal law treats same-sex couples as strangers, thereby denying them the 1,138 federal rights, benefits and protections available to different-sex married couples. Questions may be submitted in advance by emailing: webchat@hrc.org. Questions will be answered by:
- Financial planner Joe Kapp
- Family and Estate Attorney Kirstin Gulling
- HRC Legal Director Lara Schwartz
The live chat will be take place at 2:00 pm EST at www.hrc.org/taxchat. We'll post a full transcript of the chat within the next few days.
