<p>Voting is fundamental to democracy, but American trust in “one person, one vote” has been compromised in recent years by Electoral College outcomes, allegations of voter suppression and voter fraud, and gerrymandering of congressional district boundaries. Integral to that conversation is the rule of law and the pursuit of justice. For this installment of the American Voter Project series, the <strong>Eric H. Holder Jr. Initiative</strong> <strong>for Civil and Political Rights</strong> invites you to join us for a panel discussion on the road ahead for the Department of Justice under the new administration.</p>

<p><strong>Eric H. Holder Jr. CC'73, LAW'76</strong>, 82nd Attorney General of the United States</p>
<p><strong>Jenny A. Durkan,</strong> Mayor of Seattle </p>
<p><strong>Neal Katyal</strong>, Former Acting Solicitor General of the United States; Partner, Hogan Lovells</p>
<p><strong>Sally Yates</strong>, Former Deputy and Acting Attorney General of the United States; Partner, Special Matters and Government Investigations, King & Spalding</p>
<p>Moderated by <strong>Bernard E. Harcourt</strong>, Isidor and Seville Sulzbacher Professor of Law, Professor of Political Science and Executive Director of the Holder Initiative</p>
