The American President

About this episode

Derrick is away this episode so we brought in someone with actual relevant experience for a change! (Note: that was Geoff's comment. Of course.) Alison Gill has nearly 2 decades of experience in federal legislative and policy matters. Currently the Director of Nominations and Democracy at the National Women’s Law Center, she spends her days opposing biased and unqualified judicial nominees and advocating court reform. (Full disclosure: Her last job was as Geoff's boss)

This episode we remember the late, great Rob Reiner by discussing his 1995 film, The American President. Mike, Geoff, and Alison discuss what it takes to get legislation through Congress and whether the crime bill and environmental protection bill highlighted in the movie could survive in the courts today.

The sponsor of the podcast is Moore Law PLLC, a law firm that focuses on business law and general commercial litigation.  If you would like to set up a free consultation, please fill out the form located at https://www.mooreatty.com/contact.
