ACC SoCal Webinar: Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act: Guidance and Response Strategies
Webinar | 04.06.22, 4:00 AM PDT - 5:00 AM PDT
Partners Evan Chuck and David Stepp will weigh in on the passage of the Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act (UFLPA) that is causing many multinational companies to closely audit their supply chains. This webinar will provide perspectives from the front lines and offer guidance to meet the enhanced requirements imposed by supply chains facing increasing regulatory and public scrutiny.
Topics include:
- Details of the UFLPA, including its rebuttable presumption that any product with any nexus with Xinjiang or with trafficked Uyghurs is make with forced labor and thereby prohibited from import into the U.S.
- Recommendations on how companies should prepare now for the June 21, 2022, implementation of the UFLPA.
- How companies should approach compliance under the UFLPA in light of China’s Anti-Foreign Sanctions Law banning Chinese companies and individuals from complying with “discriminatory restrictive measures,” such as the UFLPA.

Rethinking "the Administrative State" - Takeaways From the Supreme Court's 2025–26 Term
The Supreme Court's 2025–26 term took up several momentous cases that will influence and, in key respects, reorient constitutional separation-of-powers principles moving forward. Join the D.C. Bar Administrative Law and Agency Practice Community for a discussion of the key takeaways from the Supreme Court's 2025-26 term. This panel will examine decisions addressing the scope of executive branch authority, including cases involving tariffs issued under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act and the removal of leaders of so-called independent agencies. The discussion will also address significant orders issued on the Court's emergency docket and what these decisions and orders signal about the distinct roles the three branches of federal government play in shaping the administrative state.
