Forum 1: The Legal Framework for COVID‑19 Recovery

Creating a legal framework for COVID-19 recovery will be the first plank in our Campaign for Common Good. We will host a virtual forum on Tuesday, June 30, at 12pm Eastern time, and will cover the following challenges: avoiding red tape delays in reopening; creating a reliable liability framework that avoids chilling reopening while incentivizing safe protocols; and learning from other developed countries. The forum will feature the following panel members:

  • Phil Goldberg, Director, Center for Civil Justice, Progressive Policy Institute

  • Karen Harned, Executive Director, Small Business Legal Center, National Federation of Independent Business

  • Patrick Hedren, Vice President, Litigation and Deputy General Counsel, National Association of Manufacturers

  • Nick Malyshev, Head, Regulatory Policy Division, Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD)

  • Philip K. Howard (moderator), Chair, Common Good

Preregistration is required. Thank you for your continued support of our Campaign for Common Good.
