China. This CLE will provide an overview of recent developments on human rights
and U.S. trade law, with analysis of key legal issues for corporate counsel,
non-governmental organizations, and the interested public. Topics will include
how human rights have resulted in new export controls, how human rights impact
export control licensing decisions, sanctions designations for human rights
reasons, labor provisions in the U.S.-Canada-Mexico Agreement (USMCA), and
more.This CLE is approved for credit through July 7,
2025.
