Election Results Are In: What the 2026 Midterm Election Results Mean for Congress, the Administration, and Your Business

The 2026 midterm elections will reset the political landscape — and organizations across industries will need to understand what comes next. Join Foley & Lardner for a timely post-election briefing that goes beyond the headlines to examine the results, the new balance of power in Congress, and the Trump Administration’s likely response.

Our panel will translate the results into practical policy and business guidance for companies, investors, and regulated industries. The discussion will explore how the elections could reshape legislative priorities, congressional oversight and investigations, agency enforcement, federal spending, and major policy debates. Speakers will also address the legal traps that can arise during congressional investigations, best practices for responding to inquiries and preserving key protections, and strategies for engaging policymakers in the new political environment.

Topics will include:

• Key election results and notable races   
• The new balance of power in the House and Senate        
• Congressional leadership and committee outlook             
• Legislative priorities for the next Congress           
• Heightened congressional oversight and investigations
• Legal traps and best practices in responding to congressional inquiries and investigations
• The Administration’s anticipated policy and regulatory priorities
• Key implications for businesses, investors, and regulated industries

The webinar will be presented shortly after Election Day to incorporate the latest available election results and developments.
