Government Policy & Regulatory Resource Center

Federal and state policy developments carry immediate and long-term implications for organizations across industries and markets.

As federal and state policy priorities evolve, regulatory and enforcement landscapes shift with them. The Government Policy & Regulatory Resource Center tracks executive orders, legislative developments, trade measures, enforcement trends, and multistate activity shaping the legal and business environment.

Powered by the Morgan Lewis government solutions practice, this hub provides timely analysis of the scope and operational impact of significant government action. Explore our topic-based resources and trackers below for the latest updates.

Executive Orders & Federal Policy

We monitor executive orders and related federal policy developments, translating administration actions and agency implementation into practical guidance on scope, compliance obligations, enforcement risk, and operational impact.

Trade, Tariffs & Sanctions

US trade policy is in a period of recalibration, with evolving tariff authority, sanctions enforcement, export controls, and related judicial and legislative developments. We track these changes and provide analysis on compliance risk, refund strategy, supply chain impact, and forward-looking planning considerations.

State Attorneys General & Multistate Activity

State Attorneys General are playing an increasingly active role in enforcement and policy development, frequently coordinating across jurisdictions and alongside federal agencies. We monitor multistate investigations, emerging state-level initiatives, and evolving enforcement priorities to help organizations assess cross-jurisdictional risk and regulatory exposure.

False Claims Act & Government Enforcement Trends

The False Claims Act remains a primary enforcement mechanism for federal and state authorities addressing alleged fraud, funding compliance, and certification risk. Recent DOJ initiatives and executive actions—including increased scrutiny of civil rights representations tied to federal funding—reflect evolving enforcement theories and expanded exposure across regulated industries. We monitor these trends, qui tam activity, and parallel state actions to provide insight into emerging government enforcement priorities.

Legislative Budgetary Developments

Major federal legislation—including sweeping tax, spending, reconciliation, and regulatory measures—can significantly reshape compliance obligations, funding structures, and industry oversight. We monitor enacted and proposed legislation, budget negotiations, and congressional initiatives to provide insight into statutory changes and their operational, regulatory, and enforcement implications across industries.

Government Solutions

The Government Policy & Regulatory Resource Center is powered by Morgan Lewis’s government solutions practice. Our team includes former senior US government officials and State Attorneys General advisors who have worked inside the agencies and offices shaping today’s enforcement and policy landscape.

We pair real-time monitoring of executive, legislative, and enforcement developments with coordinated legal strategy across regulatory, investigations, litigation, compliance, trade, employment, tax, and transactional disciplines—supporting organizations confronting significant federal and state action.
