Course Description
While there hasn't been much legislative action on Capital Hill since the 2016 election, the new administration has been busy making major changes affecting American workers and employers. It seems like every day that some federal agency takes steps to dismantle many of the guidances, orders, rules, regulations, etc. put in place by previous administrations.In this program, Washington D.C. attorney Robert Fitzpatrick takes us through some of the key changes that have already occurred or are being contemplated by the Trump administration. Mr. Fitzpatrick covers the proposed Right-to-Work Act, NLRB and DOL budget and staffing changes, OSHA changes to transgender bathroom use, I-9 audits for foreign workers, the White House equal pay pledge, and much, much more.
