We recently learned that our members and business partners may have received an email notifying them that the hotel block for our Annual Conference & Exhibit is open. This is NOT the League’s hotel room block. The League’s Annual Conference & Exhibit room block information will be sent AFTER you register for the conference and the link will be sent from League staff.

The First Amendment, as well as other laws, protects certain speech in the workplace. Civil rights laws also protect employees from harassment that can be in the form of speech. How do you navigate on-duty and off-duty political and racial speech that is impacting your workforce? This presentation will address employee and employer rights regarding the voicing of opinions on mask-wearing, political candidates and topics, and race/gender issues.
