PART 1 – Legal Implications of the New Administration’s First Moves: Executive Orders, Memos, and More

The executive actions taken during the first weeks of the new Trump administration have garnered a great deal of attention and raised numerous questions for community action agencies (CAAs). Through a series of executive orders (EOs) and memos, the administration issued broad directives potentially impacting grantees around the use, review, and availability of federal funding, and generating much uncertainty about what’s to come.

To help CAAs understand these initial actions and related legal issues, CAPLAW is hosting two webinars. The first, on Friday, February 7 at 1pm ET, will provide attendees with an overview of the EOs and memos and the legal issues they raise, including those related to a federal funding pause. We will also discuss litigation filed in response to the executive actions and its potential impacts. Attendees will be able to submit questions that CAPLAW will answer and use to guide its discussion in a second webinar, on Wednesday, February 12 at 1pm ET.
