CUNITY Conversation: Is it Worthless to be “Worth Less”? Ending the Exemption of People with a Disability from the Federal Minimum Wage under the Fair Labor
Standards Act

The CUNY Law Review invites you to join us at this year’s second
CUNITY Conversation THIS THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 19th at 7:00pm in the Community Room!

The CUNITY Conversation Series features our student authors, who will have their scholarly articles published in an upcoming edition of the CUNY Law Review. This event gives the student body an opportunity to engage with the student author’s ideas and creates a conversation around interesting issues in public interest lawyering.

Our second CUNITY Conversation will feature our own Public Interest Practitioner Section (PIPS) Editor, Alanna Sakovits, whose article, Is it Worthless to be “Worth Less”? Ending the Exemption of People with a Disability from the Federal Minimum Wage under the Fair Labor Standards Act, will be published in the CUNY Law Review this winter. She will be joined by Professor Sofia Yakren, and they will facilitate a conversation on the legal issues discussed in the Note: workers’ rights, disability, and employment law.
