Duke in DC

Email: elizabeth.devitt@duke.edu

With the 2020 election now behind us, what can we expect next in Washington, D.C.?

As our new and returning elected officials get to work, experts are outlining their top considerations for Congress and the new administration on the chief policy issues facing the United States. In this Beyond Talking Points series, Duke in DC will gather researchers to discuss the current policy environment and what to expect from the executive and legislative branches in 2021. From national security to energy and utilities and from the oceans to health care, faculty experts from Duke will discuss the current policy conversations surrounding these subjects as well as their recommendations for Congress and President Joe Biden.
