Thought Leadership
California started 2025 with significant activity around artificial intelligence in the workplace.
The Trump administration has identified growth in the nuclear energy industry as a critical component of the President’s campaign to establish American energy dominance and meet the rapidly increasing need for power.
On 2 April 2025, President Trump announced a series of “reciprocal” tariffs on US imports from all countries. The tariffs apply at different rates by country, starting at a baseline of 10% and reaching as high as 50%.
On 3 February 2025, the United States reached agreements with Canada and Mexico to pause tariffs on imports from those countries in exchange for actions on border security, illegal drugs, and immigration.
