Hate crime murders in the United States rose to their highest level in more than a decade last year, according to a recent FBI report. Events like the terrorist attack in El Paso where a gunman motivated by hatred for Latinos killed 23 people have brought the divisive issue of hate to the American center stage. In this moderated discussion, we will explore the impact that hate—whether murder or speech—has had on American lives and how horrific acts of hate have reverberated around the globe. What does this mean for our democracy? What does this mean at the state level?


AG Karl Racine (Democrat) serves as the District of Columbia’s first elected Attorney General and in December 2020 was sworn in as President of the National Association of Attorneys General. AG Christopher Carr (Republican) serves as the state of Georgia’s 54th Attorney General. We will gather insights from attorneys general from both political parties on where our nation is headed and what can be done to heal and heed the words of our Constitution: “(to) form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare.”


Participants will gain an understanding of how hate incidents and hate groups are affecting state governments and what is being done to restore unity.


Featured Speakers:

  • Attorney General Christopher M. Carr, Attorney General of Georgia
  • Attorney General Karl A. Racine, Attorney General of Washington, D.C.
Moderator:
  • Natalie O. Ludaway, Partner, Crowell & Moring LLP

But that does not tell the entire story. The Administration remains committed to exercising a heavy hand in AI, including by banning the U.S. government’s procurement of so-called “woke AI,” intervening in the development of data centers and the export of the AI technology stack, imposing an export fee for certain semiconductors to China, and assuming a stake in a U.S. semiconductor company. State legislatures are also racing to implement their own regulations, particularly around AI’s use in critical areas, such as healthcare, labor and employment, and data privacy. The many sources of regulation raise the specter of a fragmented compliance environment for businesses. This webinar will delve into the Administration’s AI strategy, going beyond the headlines to analyze:...
