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

Terminations, Stop Work Orders, and De-Scopes – The Latest Updates and Recovery Opportunities for USAID Contractors and Grant Recipients

In 2025, the U.S. Government’s policy statements and Executive Orders have had far-reaching impacts for government contractors and grant recipients. Although terminations, stop work orders, and de-scopes have affected private companies, non-profits, and universities doing business across multiple agencies, the U.S. Government’s policies relating to the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) has caused particular confusion and uncertainty relating to performance, compliance, and contractual procedure. Key questions have included the potential impacts of official and less formal communications from the U.S. Government, procedural issues arising from the move of certain functions to the U.S. Department of State, and the effect of various pending litigations. As businesses and organizations plan for 2026, the importance of preserving their rights and maximizing potential recovery opportunities remains paramount.
