The Conference will include keynote addresses by Anthony Foxx (former U.S. Secretary of Transportation, Emma Bloomberg Professor of the Practice of Public Leadership at the Harvard Kennedy School and former Chief Policy Officer of Lyft) and Charles Hamilton Houston III (Senior Counsel of Westlake Corporation, and grandson of civil rights pioneer Charles Hamilton Houston). A plenary session featuring Judge J. Michael Luttig (retired, U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit) and Secretary Jeh Charles Johnson (former U.S. Secretary of Homeland Security) of the ABA Task Force for American Democracy will highlight the final day of the Conference.
