Description

Join us for a Town Hall event examining the impact of the November 2016 elections.

Town Halls are meant to engage and inform both the affinity groups and the wider Yale community about a wide variety of topics and concerns. For the winter 2017 Town Hall, we will explore the consequences of the 2016 elections for a range of issues and concerns. Topics we will examine include the outlook for healthcare policy, including the future of the ACA and Medicare; LGBTQ concerns and the law; and for immigration policy, and more broadly the impact of federal policy changes on immigrant communities.
