MEMORANDUM DECISION AND ORDER
TASHIMA, District Judge.
This action arises from the decision by an employer, defendant McDonnell Douglas Corporation (“MDC”), to terminate health care benefits for its retired, non-union employees. Like many employers, MDC provided health care benefits to retirees, as well as employees, for several decades under an employee welfare benefit plan governed by the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (“ERISA”). However, in 1992, MDC decided to terminate its health care benefits plan for its retired, non-union employees (“plaintiffs”).
