Please join us for the next edition of Third Thursday – Crowell & Moring’s Labor and Employment Update, a webinar series dedicated to helping our clients stay on top of developing law and emerging compliance issues.

The U.S. Supreme Court has issued several decisions this year implicating substantive employment law and procedural issues that affect important aspects of employment law litigation.  These key decisions include:

  • Muldrow v. St. Louis, in which the Court lowered the burden for plaintiffs to establish an adverse employment action in a Title VII discrimination claim.
  • Murray v. UBS Securities, LLC, which clarified the requirements of whistleblower claims under the Sarbanes Oxley Act.
  • Starbucks Corp. v. McKinney, setting a rigorous standard that must be applied for any injunctions sought by the NLRB against employers in alleged unfair labor practice cases.
  • Acheson Hotels, LLC v. Laufer, addressing questions related to the ability of “tester” plaintiffs to bring disability discrimination claims.  

In this month’s program, our panelists will discuss the Court’s significant opinions from this term and what they will mean for employers and employment law, and we will also provide a preview of the Court’s docket for next year.

Terminations, Stop Work Orders, and De-Scopes – The Latest Updates and Recovery Opportunities for USAID Contractors and Grant Recipients

In 2025, the U.S. Government’s policy statements and Executive Orders have had far-reaching impacts for government contractors and grant recipients. Although terminations, stop work orders, and de-scopes have affected private companies, non-profits, and universities doing business across multiple agencies, the U.S. Government’s policies relating to the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) has caused particular confusion and uncertainty relating to performance, compliance, and contractual procedure. Key questions have included the potential impacts of official and less formal communications from the U.S. Government, procedural issues arising from the move of certain functions to the U.S. Department of State, and the effect of various pending litigations. As businesses and organizations plan for 2026, the importance of preserving their rights and maximizing potential recovery opportunities remains paramount.
