Great to be able to talk about #PWFA and the important supports it provides for pregnant and postpartum workers with our amazing IUMaurerLaw students!

Yesterday, the Women’s Law Caucus, Feminist Law Forum, and Labor & Employment Law Society hosted Professor Deborah Widiss @DeborahWidiss for a discussion about the Pregnant Workers Fairness Act.

Thanks U.S. EEOC for a strong new rule providing important guidance on how #PWFA supports workers with pregnancy-related needs. My forthcoming article (soon to be updated to discuss the final rule) explains this landmark law in detail. Available here: papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cf….

Excited to be working with Erin Macey, Indiana Community Action Poverty Institute & Women's Fund Indy on to help workers learn about how #PWFA provides essential supports for pregnancy-related needs.

Important article about damages caps and time limits under Title VII and Section 1981 with comments from Deborah Widiss @DeborahWidiss

Glad to have been able to contribute to this article on the harms caused by Congress's failure to update the damage caps in Title VII and by contracts that set extremely short deadlines for legal claims under Section 1981.

We were thrilled to be able to host Danielle Citron! And yes -- I'm fired up now to work to protect our intimate privacy.

Thanks again Insurance Law Center for inviting me to present on new laws that authorize private insurance to provide paid family leave--and on how they may actually exacerbate inequality. For anyone wanting more detail, the full paper is here: repository.law.indiana.edu/facpub/3078/
