As we approach the 2020 presidential election, and with the newly opened Supreme Court seat, the US political landscape is as unpredictable as ever.

In this webinar, Seyfarth attorneys do a deep dive into the current, pre-election environment and discuss potential impacts on the HR and Employment spaces given the outcome of the November election. Presenters also discuss the significant impact Former Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg had on Labor & Employment cases—past and future—and how the individual who fills the existing Supreme Court vacancy could impact these types of cases moving forward.

Topics covered include:

  • Top employment priorities in 2021: considerations for a Biden Administration and a Trump Administration
  • Impact on the pending challenge to the Affordable Care Act
  • Justice Ginsburg’s lasting impact on employment cases
  • A look back and forward on the 2019-2020 Supreme Court term’s most impactful employment cases including the Bostock decision; the upholding of deferred action for childhood arrivals; and cases regarding the future of arbitration agreements and class waivers
  • What’s in store for the 2020-2021 US Supreme Court term noting the nomination process for Amy Coney Barrett and her potential impact on the Court; California v. Texas and Texas v. United States – challenges to the ACA’s individual mandate; and Van Buren v. United States – expanding CFAA to cover unauthorized employee use
