Join us at Assumption University in Worcester for a two-part seminar preceding our Annual Meeting on June 5 with a special focus on the interaction between changes in federal laws and our roles as municipal counsel in the Commonwealth.

The first panel will focus on the effects of new federal policies on public procurement, grants, and construction projects.  We will address compliance with Executive Orders, availability of federal funding, and the impact of tariffs and economic policies on public sector work in the Commonwealth.

The second panel will provide an update on changes in federal law, from Executive Orders to court decisions, impacting municipal law enforcement and its interaction with federal immigration enforcement, diversity, equity and inclusion policies, and education policies.

Sam Dinning, Policy & Strategic Initiatives Counsel, City of Boston Law Department

Mina S. Makarious, Partner, Anderson & Kreiger, LLP

Christopher J. Petrini, Founding Principal, Petrini & Associates, P.C.
