Beyond the Subpoena: What Companies Need to Know About the Next Era of Congressional Investigations

Please join Mayer Brown and Edelman Smithfield for a timely discussion on the congressional investigations and oversight landscape facing companies in 2027 and beyond.

With the 2026 midterm elections poised to reshape congressional leadership, committee priorities, and the broader oversight agenda, companies should be prepared for a shifting investigations landscape and for how changes in Washington could bring new areas of corporate activity under congressional scrutiny.

Our panel will examine the issues and industries most likely to attract congressional attention, how investigations originate and evolve, and what companies can do to prepare for and respond to congressional scrutiny. The discussion will also explore the intersection of legal, communications, and reputational considerations, as well as how organizations can navigate congressional inquiries before, during, and after an investigation.

Additional speakers to be announced.

This program will be live streamed. If you would like to watch the session, please indicate this in your RSVP. The link will be sent prior to the event.
