Presidents have access to sweeping emergency powers that have been the source of controversy for generations. As Americans become increasingly skeptical of unchecked presidential power, a bipartisan group of Representatives and Senators have introduced broad reforms that would rein in the executive branch and help reclaim Congress's constitutional authority. This panel will discuss those reforms, why we need them, and what's next in this ongoing debate.
Panelists include:
- Luis Cardona, U.S. Army veteran and federal affairs liaison at Concerned Veterans for America
- Soren Dayton, policy advocate at Protect Democracy
- Liza Goitein, director of the Liberty & National Security Program at the Brennan Center for Justice
- Dylan Hedtler-Gaudette, government affairs manager at the Project on Government Oversight (POGO)
- Kate Oh, senior policy counsel at the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU)
