Join your neighbors in an intimate and insightful conversation about "The Supreme Court and Upcoming Election" over hor d'ouevres and wine with Nan Aron, the founder and president of Alliance for Justice (AFJ), the leading progressive advocacy organization on justice issues since its inception in 1979. Under Nan’s leadership, AFJ has grown to become a national association of more than 130 groups representing a variety of progressive constituencies. One of AFJ’s highest priorities is to help create and sustain a fair-minded, highly qualified federal judiciary that reflects the diversity of the legal profession and the American people. Recently, Nan has led AFJ as it rises to multiple challenges created by the Trump Administration. AFJ is recognized as the foremost progressive organization providing research and resources on federal judicial nominees, and Nan is a sought-after thought leader and commentator who has appeared in multiple media outlets online, in print and in broadcast. Prior to founding Alliance for Justice, Nan was a staff attorney for the ACLU’s National Prison Project. She has also served as a trial attorney for the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, litigating race and sex discrimination cases against companies and unions. She holds a BA from Oberlin College and a JD from Case Western Reserve. Salon is Wednesday, October 2nd 7:00-9:00 PM in a private home in Chevy Chase. Each "chair" is $75 and the entire ticket purchase price is tax deductible. Details re location sent later upon payment
