Nothing to See Here. Move Along. Move Along

With apologies to Star Wars purists, the first few days of this year's National Industry Liaison Group (NILG) conference have been much like that scene in Episode IV when Ben Kenobi uses his Jedi powers to cause the Stormtroopers to ignore the droids in the back of the speeder.  "Move along.  Move along" the Stromtroopers tell our intrepid crew.  And so it is here.  Nothing much new to report.  Move along.  Move along.

That doesn't mean there haven't been good presentations by capable experts at this conference.  Unfortunately, the simple fact is that the federal contractor community is basically in a holding pattern, waiting for the finalization of a series of proposed regulations and other changes to OFCCP's requirements.  Thus, the people at this conference are stuck talking about things we already know, with an occasion break for speculating about what might lie around the corner.

Move along.  Move along.
