The United States continues to address and recover from the year-old COVID-19 pandemic, which has resulted in more than 500,000 deaths so far and a historic economic recession. Fifty top legal experts, convene to offer a new assessment of the U.S. policy response to the crisis, COVID-19 Policy Playbook: Legal Recommendations for a Safer, More Equitable Future, and recommend policy solutions at all levels of government, as the nation works to quell the current crisis and carry out plans to rebuild.
The Director of Legal Aid at Work’s Work & Family Program, Sharon Terman, co-authored a chapter of the Playbook on Paid Leave and Unemployment Insurance during the Pandemic and Beyond with Michele Evermore of the National Employment Law Project.
