What's Happening at GU Politics

This Week

We officially launched the work of the Baker Center for Leadership & Governance (https://t.e2ma.net/click/qyxai/2bsghl/yozfmc), a new center at Georgetown within GU Politics at the McCourt School of Public Policy designed to bring together stakeholders from government, business, media, nonprofit, academia, and faith-based institutions to tackle pressing global challenges and begin the work of restoring faith in our bedrock institutions. The launch event was moderated by NPR's Steve Inskeep and featured Mayor of Baltimore Stephanie Rawlings-Blake, Independent Journal Review's Michelle Jaconi, and Georgetown's Sonal Shah and John Carr for a conversation on "Restoring Trust." Read more about the Baker Center launch event here (https://t.e2ma.net/click/qyxai/2bsghl/eh0fmc).

House Speaker Paul Ryan (R-WI) spoke to an audience of more than 500 Georgetown students, faculty and staff about the importance of the Republican Party's engagement with millennials this Wednesday. "The America that you want is the American that we want - open, diverse, dynamic," Ryan said during his opening remarks. Speaker Ryan also participated in a Q&A moderated by Mo Elleithee, GU Politics Executive Director, and S.E. Cupp, CNN contributor and member of GU Politics' Advisory Board. Speaker Ryan answered a variety of questions ranging from immigration to fixing entitlements. Check out the full video of his speech and Q&A session here (https://t.e2ma.net/click/qyxai/2bsghl/u90fmc)!
