With 300,000 federal workers laid off, thousands of contracts and grants eliminated, and office leases terminated, the impacts have extended well beyond the federal workforce, affecting housing markets, employment trends, innovation, and long-term regional competitiveness.Join the George Washington Chapter of Lambda Alpha International (LAIGW) for an engaging luncheon conversation with Tracy H. Loh, a Fellow at Brookings Metro, as we examine how federal workforce reductions from January 2025 have disproportionately affected the Washington region. Drawing on findings from the DMV Monitor, a new regional analysis, the discussion will explore the economic, real estate, and workforce implications of federal job losses, spending cuts, and office lease terminations across the National Capital Region. https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events6/banners/900e3f10-06eb-11f1-a773-070e5511f977-rimg-w1200-h600-dcffffff-gmir.jpg Note New LocationKCCT Office Building1350 Eye Street NWLower Level Conference Room 113Washington DC 20005Agenda Update and Networking FocusWe adjusted our LAIGW luncheon format in response to member feedback that emphasized the importance of meaningful connection and more time for informal networking.
