​Join us for a compelling and timely conversation on the growing power of the presidency and the state of our democracy featuring two of the nation’s leading legal minds.

​

Discussion topics:

• What exactly is executive power—and what did the Constitution intend?

• How have recent executive actions tested the limits of presidential authority?

• Where are the checks and balances? Are they working?

• What role have the courts played in reining in (or enabling) executive overreach?

• Can the concentration of executive power be stopped? How big is the threat to our nation?
