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>&nbsp;<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>Panelists&nbsp;&nbsp;</strong></p> <p><strong>Eric H. Holder Jr. CC&#39;73, LAW&#39;76</strong>, 82nd Attorney General of the United States</p> <p><strong>Jenny&nbsp;A.&nbsp;Durkan,</strong>&nbsp;Mayor of Seattle&nbsp;</p> <p><strong>Neal Katyal</strong>, Former Acting Solicitor General of the United States; Partner,&nbsp;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 &amp; Spalding</p> <p>Moderated by&nbsp;<strong>Bernard E. Harcourt</strong>, Isidor and Seville Sulzbacher Professor of Law, Professor of Political Science and Executive Director of the Holder Initiative</p> <p><em>*Panelists subject to change.</em></p>
