Summary

With the elections now in the rearview mirror, the pending inauguration of President-elect Biden and the convening of the new Congress in January, employers are determining how the changes in Washington, D.C. will impact their business. In this program, our ELA panel will provide an overview of the expected Congressional and federal agency actions during the final weeks of the Trump Administration and what employers can expect during the Biden-Harris Administration. Both the long-term reversals in prior policies and regulations as well as the near term changes during the Lame Duck period before the January 20th inauguration will be discussed.

• Reversal of the Trump Administration's Executive Orders, regulations and guidance

• Final actions by the Department of Labor and EEOC during the Lame Duck period

• Impact of new administration on EEOC and its Republican Commissioners
