Outlook on the New Administration

With any new Presidential administration come questions about what will change in terms of policy and law—and how quickly. Join Vinson & Elkins for an insightful program where we will discuss the expectations and procedural steps involved in the transition to a new administration, both during the window leading up to a new President being inaugurated and immediately after, including relevant timelines and the potential appointment of new agency leaders in the Cabinet agencies and in various independent commissions. We’ll also explore what a new President can (and cannot) do through Executive Orders and other regulatory actions (including freezes or roll-backs), and the potential relevance of the Congressional Review Act.
