The Career Couch column last Sunday, about presidential politics in the office, referred incorrectly to comments by Daniel I. Prywes, a partner in the Washington offices of the law firm Bryan Cave. When Mr. Prywes said that soliciting participation in political events might be permissible, he was referring to both employers and employees, not just employees.
