**\*\*Please read the description for recommended pre-event preparations\*\***

Which policies and regulations are preventing the US from reaching social progress? How can laws and standards be improved to boost global welfare?

Join this month's discussion group meeting and bring your thoughts and ideas on regulatory justice reforms (including criminal justice, immigration/borders, land use, etc.)! We welcome \*EVERYONE\* to bring their perspectives on the topic as well as any prompts/questions you might have for others.

This month, we're especially excited to recommend some quality resources for the discussion. We strongly encourage anyone interested in attending to read a few introductory materials (30 minutes of core content with additional optional content available) before the discussion.

The goal of the readings is simply to ground the conversation so that participants can make the most of the event - but if you feel that you already have some background in the topic(s) (or if you simply want to join anyway), we would love for you to join the event!

You can find our compilation of resources on the topics below:

In-Person Discussion Group: Space Governance and Settlement (Manhattan)

**Please register here to attend: [https://bit.ly/4bgUYro](https://bit.ly/4bgUYro)**

*Note: time and location may be subject to change NYC is especially transient in the summer!*

Join this event to meet effective altruist folks who are maybe just moving to the city, just visiting, or perhaps longtime residents!

The event will be structured so members can get to know others for brief rounds of guided questions. There will also be time afterwards for further conversation and networking. All are welcome!

We hope all EA New Yorkers will come along to connect and enjoy the warmer weather. And we invite you to bring friends as well!
