The publication’s editors, Richard Lehfeldt and Dan Wolff, both partners in the firm’s Administrative Law and Regulatory Practice, sat down to discuss the forecast. In this 8 minute podcast, Richard and Dan discuss what you will find in our Regulatory Forecast 2018, including both topics and authors new to the forecast this year.

The U.S. Department of Labor (DOL) has proposed another revision to independent contractor regulations, one that would provide for more leeway in classifying workers as contractors. DOL’s proposed rule, published on February 26, 2026, would rescind the Biden DOL’s March 2024 independent contractor regulation and reinstate a framework substantially tracking the prior Trump rule of January 2021. The proposed rule would also apply the narrower analysis to worker classifications under the Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) and the Migrant and Seasonal Agricultural Worker Protection Act (MSPA). The comment period closes in late April 2026; until then, the 2024 rule remains in effect for purposes of private litigation.
