This symposium will bring together leaders in law and economics to explore topical issues in the regulation of labor. Consisting of two panels and a keynote speech, the symposium will discuss various legal frameworks that attempt to create and enforce fair labor standards. The first panel will discuss legislation that regulates the domestic labor force, with special attention toward Janus v. AFSCME. The second panel will discuss recent executive orders and their implications on immigrant labor in the United States.

Approved for 3.5 CLE credits in the area of professional practice, this event is appropriate for both newly admitted and experienced attorneys.
