In this special 50th episode of Halal Money Matters, host Monem Salam continues the discussion on securing halal options in employer retirement plans by exploring a different path: religious accommodation and litigation. Monem speaks with longtime Los Angeles County public defender Haaris Syed and civil rights attorney Zeba Huq about how Haaris went years without accepting his employer’s generous retirement match, then pursued a religious accommodation that ultimately led LA County to create a religious exemption in its 401(k) and 457 plans.
