Miller Canfield Discusses the Aftermath of the Affirmative Action Decision in Michigan
Please join the team of labor and employment attorneys from Miller Canfield when they address legal obligations and compliance requirements for Michigan entities that may be impacted by the passage of Proposal 2 at five timely breakfast meetings throughout the state.

Public institutions that will be affected by this amendment include state and local entities involved in education, public employment and contracting.
