The New Normal: What U.S. Government Contractors and Grant Recipients Need to Know About Terminations, Stop Work Orders, Tariffs, and the Path Forward in 2025

Webinar | 02.06.25, 1:00 PM EST - 2:00 PM EST

Address

Virtual

Over the past two weeks, the U.S. Government has issued policy statements and Executive Orders with far-reaching impacts for government contractors and grant recipients. Some federal government agencies have already directed contractors and grant recipients to stop work, while others have already begun to de-scope contracts, and issue termination notices. The U.S. Government has also announced new tariffs on goods coming from Canada, Mexico, and China. The impacts of these policy directives and their implementation are significant – for private companies, non-profits, and universities.

In this webinar, Crowell & Moring lawyers specializing in U.S. government contracts and grants will focus on:

  • Stop Work Orders
  • De-Scoping Contracts and Grants
  • Partial and Full Terminations for Convenience
  • The Impact of New Tariffs

Our discussion will focus on the steps that contractors and grant recipients can take now, to preserve your rights and protect the bottom line. This includes responding to and negotiating with government counterparties, providing notice where required, and how to think about cost recovery strategies for affected contractors and grant recipients.

This complimentary webinar is for government contractors only, no outside law firms or government personnel.

An ELI Public Webinar - Understanding the Basics of Extended Producer Responsibility in the United States

To reduce waste and encourage recycling, an increasing number of international, federal, and local jurisdictions are embracing extended producer responsibility (EPR) laws, which have wide-reaching compliance implications for product manufacturers, distributors, retailers, and other entities falling within the varying definitions of “producers.” EPR laws assign covered producers greater responsibility for the full lifecycle of their products and establish mandatory requirements for reporting, source reduction, and financial contributions to third-party entities, known as producer responsibility organizations. EPR requirements apply to a variety of consumer product categories, including batteries, electronics, mattresses, pharmaceuticals, textiles, and, most recently, packaging and paper products.
