How has the increase in immigration enforcement and new compliance challenges under the second Trump administration affecting the way staffing firms conduct their business?

The ASA Legal Line monthly video series features a member of the ASA legal team or industry legal expert and addresses critical legal, regulatory, and legislative topics that have direct implications for your business. In the latest installment, ASA general counsel Brittany Sakata reviews some compliance strategies to consider in the current environment.
