Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) announced the launch of a new website that provides information about the EEOC's Amicus Program and a searchable, online database that contains all briefs filed since 2000 "in the U.S. Circuit Courts of Appeals in which the Commission was a party, or briefs filed as a ‘friend of the court’ ( amicus curiae ) in those courts, as well as in U.S. District Courts and state courts." The Amicus Program website should be of particular interest to NELA members because it now makes available the criteria EEOC uses to evaluate whether to participate in a case, provides instructions on submitting an amicus request to the Commission, and announces a new email address - amicus@eeoc.gov - where counsel can submit such requests
