On January 2, Congress overrode President Trump’s veto of the annual National Defense Authorization Act, enacting $740 billion in national security spending. What does that have to do with SEC Enforcement? Tucked into the back of the nearly 1500-page law is a provision that makes significant changes to the SEC’s enforcement powers.
