Businesses that operate in the United States are already preparing for the potential barrage of informal inquiries, document subpoenas, and public hearings when the new Congress arrives on January 3, 2027. With a perfect storm of heightened political division, legislative gridlock, and executive branch resistance to oversight, conditions are ripe for enhanced congressional focus on companies and high-profile executives. In addition to adverse publicity, congressional oversight can bring related federal and state enforcement actions and private civil litigation.
Join Baker McKenzie’s Congressional Investigations team for the first session in our webinar series, where we will discuss what companies should be doing now:
- What to expect from congressional oversight
- Likely sectors and issues of investigative interest
- When and how to engage with Congress
- Key considerations in responding to informal inquiries and subpoenas
- Strategies to prepare for potential testimony and public hearings
Drawing on firsthand experience with high-stakes congressional investigations, our panel will provide practical guidance to help legal, compliance, and government affairs professionals get ready to navigate congressional scrutiny with confidence.
