Foley & Lardner LLP's Jacqueline Hayduk writes: On September 10, 2024, pop-culture icon Taylor Swift announced her endorsement for the 2024 presidential election via Instagram and encouraged her followers to get out and vote. Swift’s post is a great reminder of two topics that employers should be considering as election season continues to ramp up: (1) navigating employee political speech and (2) compliance with voting leave laws. Take this election season as an opportunity to audit your policies related to these topics. #electionseason #politicalspeech #votingleave #votingrights

Baker Donelson's Erin Greten and Yann Kaufman write: With disasters increasing in frequency, severity, and cost, the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) has a new financial incentive for applicants to rebuild in ways that will make them more resilient in the face of a future event. FEMA will increase its Public Assistance federal cost share for projects that incorporate post-disaster recovery measures increasing readiness for, and resilience from, a future major disaster. FEMA's new policy applies to applicants recovering from any disaster declared by the President on or after September 26, 2024. #fema #naturaldisasters #disasterrecovery #disasteraid #hurricanes
