From NAFTA to USMCA – What is the Future of International Investment Protection for US Investors?
Webinar | 05.28.19, 8:00 AM EDT - 9:00 AM EDT
Under the new USMCA investment chapter, a radical change has occurred that will not only impact US investors in Canada and Mexico, but may herald a significant retreat in the US position on investment protection. Our presenters will describe these changes and address many related questions, including: Why did the policy change? Will this now become general policy and result in the watering down of all such protections and dispute resolution alternatives in future trade agreements? What are the wider business implications of potential weakened investment protections? What strategies can business undertake to reverse this trend?
Presenters include some of the most experienced practitioners in the field. We hope you will join us for this free and informative webinar.

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.
