Join us April 10 for DEI Officers and Recent Executive Orders – Essential Strategies Recent executive orders, including “Ending Illegal Discrimination and Restoring Merit-Based Opportunity” and “Ending Radical and Wasteful Government DEI Programs and Preferencing,” promise to have a significant impact on the role of diversity, equity, and inclusion officers. The orders mandate sweeping changes to DEI initiatives in the federal government, heightened scrutiny over DEI programs in the private sector and the dissolution of ongoing DEI initiatives in education. DEI officers work in collaboration with multiple business and firm stakeholders to strategize and implement programs and procedures that create a more inclusive environment. Their work allows business and firms to represent diverse clients more effectively.

The NJSBA is proud to host retired U.S. Supreme Court Associate Justice Stephen Breyer at the 2025 Annual Meeting and Convention in Atlantic City. The May 16 program, moderated by retired state Supreme Court Justice Barry T. Albin, will center on themes in Justice Breyer’s latest book “Reading the Constitution: Why I Chose Pragmatism, Not Textualism.” Together, these two titans of jurisprudence will dissect the pragmatic approach to interpretating the Constitution and the competing judicial philosophy – textualism – which guides decisions from the current court.
