1Opinion of the Court
SPRECHER, Circuit Judge.
The plaintiff, Bucyrus-Erie Co., appeals from the district court judgment denying its request to enjoin various officers of the state of Wisconsin from exercising jurisdiction under the Wisconsin Fair Employment Act, Wis.Stat. §§ 111.31-111.37, over a complaint alleging that plaintiff’s employee disability benefit plan is sex discriminatory. The primary issue presented by this appeal is whether the Employee Retirement Income Security Act [ERISA], 29 U.S.C. §§ 1001-1381, preempts the application of state fair employment laws to employee benefit plans.
