Show Notes: Noah Feldman, Harvard Law professor, author, and ethical advisor talks about his career in constitutional law and his experiences in Iraq and Tunisia, sharing stories from his time guiding, and in some cases, establishing, the law of countries in turmoil or collapse. He also talks about the themes explored in his books and current pursuits. Real World Projects in Constitutional Law Noah describes his academic journey, starting from his early love for school and his decision to pursue academia full-time, with brief interruptions for real-world projects. He shares his experiences as a law clerk for the late Justice David Souter and his role as the senior constitutional advisor to the Coalition Provisional Authority in Iraq. Noah discusses his involvement in drafting the Iraqi constitution, starting from scratch, and the unique opportunity it provided to apply his academic knowledge in a real-world scenario. He recounts his work in Tunisia after the Arab Spring, advising the Constituent Assembly on constitutional design. Oversight on Facebook After writing his book about James Madison, Noah's next step was unexpected involvement with Facebook's Oversight Board, which was inspired by a conversation with Sheryl Sandberg and Mark Zuckerberg. He was in California giving a talk at Stanford. He was thinking about writing a book on free speech in the era of social media. He explained to Sheryl how he had the idea that Facebook would benefit from having a kind of private Supreme Court. And the idea was that all of the companies privately made content moderation decisions could actually be made in a more public and transparent way, according to principles and the doing so would add to the legitimacy of their decision-making process. She loved the idea and introduced him to Mark Zuckerberg, and the outcome was the Oversight Board. Noah explains his ongoing work advising tech companies on governance issues and the complexities of balancing free expression and ethics in the tech industry. A Sideline in Journalism and a Focus on Writing Noah mentions his sideline in journalism, starting with a recommendation from Michael Ignatieff to write for the New York Times. He shares his experience of writing for Bloomberg's opinion section for over a decade. Noah talks about his podcast, Deep Background, which he hosted for three years, and his plans to relaunch it in a slightly different format. He discusses his current book project, The Importance of Being Human, which explores the value of human relationships in the age of AI and technology. Noah elaborates on his book project, focusing on the importance of human relationships in various aspects of life, including work, family, and politics. He expresses his open-mindedness about the potential value of romantic relationships with AI, despite initially holding a different view. Following a Theme of Constitutions When asked about his book choices, Noah explains his organizing theme of constitutions, focusing on Middle Eastern and US constitutional history. Noah outlines his planned book series on the history of the US Constitution, emphasizing the narrative throughline of the people who shaped it. He shares his experiences in Iraq, describing the chaotic and disorganized environment he encountered and the challenges of creating a functioning legal system in the midst of civil disorder. He shares the biggest lesson learned, the importance of order and law, arguing that without de facto control on the ground, it is difficult to establish a functioning legal or constitutional system. He also talks about how militias were formed. Noah discusses his work in Tunisia, highlighting the successful transition to democracy and the role of Islamist political parties in the democratic process. He reflects on the importance of norms and conventions in maintaining a functional constitutional system, using the example of Tunisia's failed Constitutional Court. Norms and Conventions in Maintaining a Constitutional System Noah emphasizes the significance of norms and conventions in the functioning of institutions, including legal systems and constitutional orders. He discusses the role of norms in the US constitutional system, using the example of the impeachment of Donald Trump to illustrate how norms can be changed by actions that challenge them. Noah reflects on the importance of understanding and respecting norms and conventions in maintaining the integrity of legal and constitutional systems. He highlights the need for clear and effective checks and balances to prevent the abuse of power and ensure the rule of law. The Importance of Family Noah shares details about his personal life, including his recent marriage to Julia Allison and his two children, Jamin and Mina, who are pursuing careers in the arts. He describes his relationship with his ex-wife, Jeannie Suk Gerson, and her husband, Jake Gerson, and how they maintain a good working relationship despite being colleagues.Noah reflects on the importance of family and personal relationships in his life, noting the support and encouragement he receives from his family. Harvard Reflections Noah reminisces about his time at Harvard, highlighting the impact of his mentors and the courses he took.

Damon Landor, a state prisoner and practicing Rastafarian, refused to cut his hair as an expression of his faith. After prison officials forcibly restrained and shaved him, Landor sued under the Religious Land Use and Institutionalized Persons Act (RLUIPA), which prohibits governments from imposing unnecessary “substantial burdens” on inmates’ religious exercise. The district court, and later the Fifth Circuit, rejected his claim, holding that monetary damages were not an available form of “appropriate relief” under the statute.The Supreme Court has granted certiorari to decide whether RLUIPA allows prisoners to seek damages against government officials in their personal capacities for violations of religious rights. Oral argument is set for November 10, 2025.Featuring:Meredith Holland Kessler, Managing Attorney, Lindsay and Matt Moroun Religious Liberty Clinic and Term Teaching Professor of Law, University of Notre Dame Law School(Moderator) Joshua C. McDaniel, Assistant Clinical Professor of Law & Director, Religious Freedom Clinic, Harvard Law School
Gabriel Olivier is an evangelical Christian who often shares his faith in public. In May 2021, when sharing his faith near an amphitheater in a public park in Brandon, Mississippi, the city’s chief of police confronted Olivier with a recently amended city ordinance requiring “protests” to occur in a designated area. Olivier repositioned himself but soon returned when the designated area proved remote and isolating. The city charged Olivier for violating the ordinance, and he pled nolo contendere and agreed to pay a fine. Olivier then challenged the ordinance under the First and Fourteenth Amendments, seeking an injunction prohibiting future enforcement of the law against his expressive activity. The district court barred Olivier’s request for injunctive relief, applying the preclusion doctrine from Heck v. Humphrey, 512 U.S. 477 (1994). As a result, Olivier cannot challenge the ordinance, even though he alleges that it continues to restrict his speech and risks future penalties. On appeal, the Fifth Circuit affirmed, splitting from the Ninth and Tenth Circuits and deepening a circuit split on whether Heck applies to noncustodial plaintiffs who cannot access habeas relief. The Fifth Circuit denied rehearing en banc by one vote, over dissents arguing Olivier’s plea should not bar future constitutional protection. In July, the Supreme Court granted certiorari.Join us for an expert breakdown of oral arguments.Featuring:Nathan Kellum, Senior Counsel, First Liberty Institute(Moderator) Steven Burnett, Clinical Instructional Fellow, Religious Freedom Clinic, Harvard Law School
On today's show, host Ali Muldrow speaks with Dionne Koller about her new book, More Than Play: How Law, Policy, and Politics Shape American Youth Sport. As a former athlete who signed her kids up for youth sports, Koller says she wrote the book to make the experience of youth sports more acceptable and accessible. Koller says that physical and emotional abuse are issues across sports, not just in the high-profile abuses in women's gymnastics. That's because hierarchies fuel our current approach to youth sports, hierarchies like parent-child and coach-athlete relationships. In both instances, kids aren't given rights. And this is a very American problem, as the US is the only nation not to sign on to the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child. Our youth sports culture has internalized the idea that being yelled at and playing through pain are good for “character development,” despite all data to the contrary. And kids are harmed when their parents and other adults get swept up in the positive and negative emotions that come from competitive play. Koller says that we've given sports sponsors and coaches both social and policy gatekeeping authority and there's not enough regulation when it comes to youth sports. We should have some minimum safety standards for youth sports, like coach background checks and other health standards. She observes that legislators are trying really hard all of a sudden to keep trans girls out of youth sports; meanwhile these same legislators aren't supporting the enforcement of Title IX regulations. And they also discuss the emphasis on winning at all costs, the rise of youth sports gambling and AAU sports, the nefarious history of the term “student-athlete,” and how overtraining kids leads to preventable injuries. Koller wants to imagine sports as an equalizer, as athleticism has been a vehicle for upward mobility in the Black community. She says there's a lot more romance we can get out of youth sports, we just have to open doors and make youth sports more accessible. Dionne Koller is Director of the Center for Sport and the Law at the University of Baltimore, where she also serves as a law professor. In 2021, she was appointed to co-chair the Commission on the State of US Olympic and Paralympics. She also has served as chair and a member of the executive board for the Sports Law Section of the Association of American Law Schools (AALS), is a member of the United States Anti-Doping Agency's Administrative Review Panel, and serves on the editorial board for the International Sports Law Journal. A graduate of Harvard Law School, Koller was awarded the AALS 2024 award for significant contributions to the field of sports law. Featured image of the cover of More Than Play by Dionne Koller.

The Author Events Series presents Jill Lepore | We the People : A History of the U.S. Constitution Meelya Gordon Memorial Lecture Standby seating will be available in the overflow room for guests who wish to wait for an opportunity to be seated in the main auditorium, if space permits. These standby seats will be available on a first come, first served basis. Auditorium seats are not guaranteed. In Conversation with Kate Shaw Published on the occasion of the 250th anniversary of the nation's founding-the anniversary, too, of the first state constitutions-We the People offers a wholly new history of the Constitution. ''One of the Constitution's founding purposes was to prevent change,'' Lepore writes. ''Another was to allow for change without violence.'' Relying on the extraordinary database she has assembled at the Amendments Project, Lepore recounts centuries of attempts, mostly by ordinary Americans, to realize the promise of the Constitution. Yet nearly all those efforts have failed. Although nearly twelve thousand amendments have been introduced in Congress since 1789, and thousands more have been proposed outside its doors, only twenty-seven have ever been ratified. More troubling, the Constitution has not been meaningfully amended since 1971. Without recourse to amendment, she argues, the risk of political violence rises. So does the risk of constitutional change by presidential or judicial fiat. Challenging both the Supreme Court's monopoly on constitutional interpretation and the flawed theory of ''originalism,'' Lepore contends in this ''gripping and unfamiliar story of our own past'' that the philosophy of amendment is foundational to American constitutionalism. The framers never intended for the Constitution to be preserved, like a butterfly, under glass, Lepore argues, but expected that future generations would be forever tinkering with it, hoping to mend America by amending its Constitution through an orderly deliberative and democratic process. Lepore's remarkable history seeks, too, to rekindle a sense of constitutional possibility. Congressman Jamie Raskin writes that Lepore ''has thrown us a lifeline, a way of seeing the Constitution neither as an authoritarian straitjacket nor a foolproof magic amulet but as the arena of fierce, logical, passionate, and often deadly struggle for a more perfect union.'' At a time when the Constitution's vulnerability is all too evident, and the risk of political violence all too real, We the People, with its shimmering prose and pioneering research, hints at the prospects for a better constitutional future, an amended America. Jill Lepore is the David Woods Kemper '41 Professor of American History at Harvard University and professor of law at Harvard Law School. She is also a staff writer at The New Yorker.

Angelo Herndon was a Black coal miner turned Communist activist who was repeatedly “arrested, convicted of vagrancy, and incarcerated” for his efforts to educate and mobilize workers. In 1932, he helped organize an interracial protest against a county decision to cut off relief for the poor. But it wasn't simply the protest that led to his chain-gang sentence — it was Herndon's possession and distribution of Communist literature, which authorities used to charge him with inciting insurrection.Herndon's prosecution, and the wrongful conviction that followed, ultimately gave rise to Herndon v. Lowry — one of the most important civil-rights and free-speech cases of the twentieth century.Herndon is also the subject of a recent book: Brad Snyder's You Can't Kill a Man Because of the Books He Reads.Joining us this episode of the Nation Podcast to discuss his review of Snyder's book is Randall Kennedy, professor at Harvard Law School and author of Say It Loud: On Race, Law, History and Culture.

Dr. Randy Frederick isn't your typical ketamine provider. As a former military flight surgeon and EM physician, he's spent nearly several years developing a "psychospiritual" approach to ketamine therapy. And his perspective challenges a lot of the conventional thinking in this field.In this conversation, Randy shares his evolution from following traditional clinical protocols to building something completely different. He talks openly about viewing ketamine as a catalyst rather than a cure, and why that distinction fundamentally changes how he works with patients.What makes this episode different? Randy doesn't just talk theory. He shares his own transformation journey. From losing his spiritual connection in college to rediscovering it through his own healing work, he's transparent about how his personal growth directly shapes the way he cares for patients. His focus on mind-body-spirit integration and helping patients reconfigure their relationship with their own minds comes from lived experience, not just clinical training.What You'll Learn in This Episode・ Why ketamine should be viewed as a catalyst, not a cure and how that philosophy changes everything about treatment・ The real challenges and rewards of transitioning from physician employee to clinic owner・ How meditation and awareness practices actually complement ketamine therapyEpisode 45 show notes:00:00 - Teaser - Ketamine is not a cure…00:28 - Episode introduction01:43 - Welcome Dr. Frederick to the show02:30 - Dr. Frederick's background: ER medicine, social media discovery moment, initial research phase05:20 - The stories that convinced Dr. Frederick: patient transformations and life-saving impact08:00 - Dr. Frederick's evolution from clinical to psychospiritual approach over the years12:00 - Why ketamine is a facilitator/catalyst, not a cure - the consciousness perspective16:30 - Dr. Frederick's personal spiritual journey: losing faith in college, rediscovering spirituality19:30 - Military background: Navy flight surgeon, Iraq deployment, veteran mental health insights22:30 - The broader psychedelic landscape: psilocybin, MDMA, stakeholder challenges26:30 - Harvard Law School psychedelic summit and Zero L course experience29:30 - Reality of clinic ownership: wearing many hats, constant challenges, HR difficulties34:30 - The five types of wealth: choosing time and lifestyle over maximum income37:30 - Bombing story discussion, perspective shifts, and choosing growth over victimhood42:00 - Mind-body-spirit integration: ego dissolution, mindfulness practice, meditation49:00 - Advice for aspiring clinic owners: having your why, mentorship, team building50:30 - Rapid fire questions: desert island choices, relaxation rituals, hidden talents57:00 - Contact information and closing remarksThanks for listeningConnect with Dr. Frederick at:WebsiteInstagramMetaSelected Links From the Episode: These book links in these show notes are Amazon affiliate links.

In this episode, Harvard Law School Senior Fellow and USA Today bestselling author Bob Bordone joins us to unpack conflict resilience—the ability to stay grounded, curious, and compassionate when everything in you wants to shut down or strike back. Bob helps us understand how to build this muscle in our homes, workplaces, and even in our faith communities. He explains why persuasion mode often backfires, how identity threat hijacks our nervous system, and what neuroscience reveals about giving our brains a “bigger, better offer” than defensiveness. Together we explore the cost of avoidance, the limits of performative civility, and how faith can model a braver kind of engagement that doesn't sacrifice truth or relationship. By the end, Bob leaves us with tools to disagree well—without giving up or giving in—and reminds us that healing our political divides begins in the small, sacred act of really listening.Learn more and buy his book: https://www.bobbordone.comGuest bio:Bob Bordone is a USA Today bestselling author, Senior Fellow at Harvard Law School, and one of the nation's leading experts on negotiation, mediation, and conflict resolution.

In this powerful episode of the MAX Afterburner Podcast, Matthew “Whiz” Buckley debriefs his unprecedented visit to Harvard Law School, where he joined religious leaders, legal scholars, legislators, and government officials to discuss the future of psychedelics and the evolving landscape of entheogenic freedom.Whiz shares insights from his presentation on the mission of the No Fallen Heroes Foundation and Sacred Warrior Fellowship - his entheogenic church devoted to healing and reconnection with the Divine and how the message deeply resonated with attendees. He also briefs listeners on upcoming Sacred Warrior Fellowship retreats, including the December gathering, and offers hard-won lessons from his own healing journey.With honesty and heart, Whiz reflects on how to prepare if the sacraments call to you - and what it means to return home to your true self.

What's going on inside the American right when open antisemitism, Holocaust revisionism, and “Groyper” culture are suddenly on center stage?In this episode, I sit down with Kimo Gandall — former chair of the California College Republicans and a Harvard Law–trained attorney active in GOP politics — to unpack the Nick Fuentes / Tucker Carlson moment, the Heritage Foundation backlash, and why some Republican leaders (like JD Vance and Trump) seem so reluctant to clearly draw red lines.We dig into the deeper questions underneath the headlines: economic precarity for young men, the rise of incel and “America First” subcultures, the limits of classical conservatism, and whether liberal pluralism still offers Jews (and everyone else) the safest framework for living with deep differences.In this conversation, we discuss:Why Nick Fuentes and the Groypers are resonating with young right-wing men online and on campusThe Tucker Carlson–Fuentes interview and the Heritage Foundation controversyJD Vance, Trump, and why GOP elites are so hesitant to forcefully condemn explicit antisemitismHow “everyone is Hitler” rhetoric on the left helped normalize Nazi talk on the rightIncels, masculinity, and the economic + social anxieties of Gen Z menLiberalism vs. particularism: can strong religious identities and pluralism coexist?What Jews should (and shouldn't) learn from rising antisemitism on the rightWhy censorship backfires, and what a healthier “marketplace of ideas” might look likeAbout my guest:Kimo Gandall is the former chairman of the California College Republicans, a recent graduate of Harvard Law School, and an attorney based in Texas who works closely with college Republican organizations and GOP campaigns.To read the article we referenced: https://www.chronicle.com/article/the-far-rights-college-crusade

Alan Dershowitz (lawyer, author, and Professor of Law, Emeritus, Harvard Law School) joins Chris Cuomo for a tough, unvarnished look at whether America's courts can still be trusted to hold the line in a democracy under pressure. Cuomo pushes on the cases shaping Trump's legal future, the role of partisan judges, and the growing belief that the judiciary is no longer an impartial guardrail but a political weapon. They dig into the power of prosecutors, the incentives driving political lawfare, and how social media outrage has made it even harder for the public to separate fact from spin. Cuomo also challenges whether the courts can stay legitimate when every ruling is now filtered through tribal loyalty, media distortion, and a political environment where accountability itself has become partisan.

Rana Dershowitz went straight to Harvard Law School after graduating in 1992, partly due to the economy and her love for learning. She describes her experience at Harvard Law School, including her role as a law school "old timer" in Cambridge. After law school, Rana moved back to New York and started working on Wall Street, initially hating the big law environment but appreciating the people she worked with. Entertainment Law at Madison Square Garden and onto Sports Law Rana discusses her career counselor's advice to explore sports law, which she had overlooked despite her involvement in sports and technical theater at Harvard. She took a six-month leave of absence and was offered a job in sports law the day she started her leave. Rana worked in entertainment law at Madison Square Garden (MSG) from 2001 to 2007, handling legal work for the Knicks, Rangers, and the WNBA's New York Liberty. She met her future husband during this time and moved to Colorado in 2007, where she continued her legal career. Joining the US Olympic Committee and Life in Colorado Rana joined the US Olympic Committee (USOC) as Deputy General Counsel in 2007, becoming interim General Counsel and then General Counsel and Head of Government Affairs. She describes the challenges of commuting between Colorado Springs and Denver, with her husband working in Bould, while managing her job and family life. Rana and her husband moved to Basalt, Colorado, in 2011, where she continued her legal work, joined the Aspen skiing company, and became involved in the Aspen community. She transitioned to a part-time role at Aspen Skiing Company while working as Phil Weiser's policy director for his gubernatorial campaign. Challenges and Opportunities at the US Olympic Committee Rana explains the unique structure of the USOC, which is federally chartered and subject to congressional oversight, unlike most Olympic committees. She discusses the complexities of funding and intellectual property rights, including the USOC's unique trademark rights. Rana highlights her work on safe sport initiatives and the challenges of managing independent national governing bodies for various sports. She reflects on the legal and operational complexities of hosting Olympic Games in the United States and the international dynamics involved. Working at Madison Square Garden and New York Liberty Rana shares a story that reflects her personal connection to Madison Square Garden. She describes the structure of MSG, which owns the building, the Knicks, the Rangers, and the Liberty, and her role in handling sponsorships and league rules. Rana recounts her involvement in the New York Liberty's WNBA finals run in 1999, feeling proud to be part of the team's success. She also discusses her role in managing entertainment acts during team sports events at MSG and shares a few of her proudest moments. Policy Work and Campaign for Phil Weiser Rana explains her role as Phil Weiser's policy director, focusing on active listening and building a grassroots campaign across Colorado. She outlines key issues the campaign is addressing, including affordability, climate change, water resources, and public lands. Rana emphasizes the importance of bridging urban-rural divides and finding innovative solutions that benefit the entire state. She highlights the campaign's efforts to address youth mental health and promote outdoor activities for children. Rana's Broader Role at Aspen Skiing Company Rana discusses her expanded role at Aspen Skiing Company, overseeing sustainability, community engagement, planning and development, and PR. She describes her transition to leading mountain operations and her current role that spans looking into employee housing and childcare. Rana reflects on the importance of understanding systems and structures beyond legal work, drawing on her experiences at Aspen. Harvard Reflections Rana shares her initial reluctance to follow in her family's legal footsteps but eventually being drawn to law by her interest in the "Justice" class. She credits the course for shifting her perspective and leading her to law school. She also mentions auditing the "Thinking about Thinking" class taught by Stephen Jay Gould, Robert Nozick, and Alan Dershowitz, and reflects on the importance of considering different perspectives in policy work and legal decision-making.

Maine overwhelmingly voted last year to end Super PACs. A federal judge blocked the ballot measure — but left a kill switch inside the ruling. Larry Lessig, a professor at Harvard Law School and head of the nonprofit Equal Citizens, is ready to flip that switch and take his case to the Supreme Court. In our final episode of Lever Time's MONEYBOMB series, David Sirota speaks with Lessig about the legal battle against Super PACs and why he believes that we can stop Citizens United without touching it.

This week's guest, Andrea Leiter, is one of those polymaths who brings not just breadth, but astonishing depth to the work of bridging the worlds of technology, biodiversity and international law; bringing them together in service of a new way of being built from the ruins of collapse. Andrea works at the intersection of law, digital transformation, and economic innovation. Director of Amsterdam Center for International Law, she's deeply aware of, and involved in, Transnational Law, Digital Economies & Institutional Innovation, all things crypto - as well as being a Social Justice Entrepreneur. She holds a jointly awarded PhD in Law from the University of Melbourne and the University of Vienna, where her dissertation examined the historical foundations of international investment law and the legal architectures of global capital. Her resulting manuscript titled ‘Making the World Safe for Investment: The Protection of Foreign Property 1922-1959' was published with Cambridge University Press. She is a junior faculty member at the Institute for Global Law and Policy at Harvard Law School. As legal scholar and strategist, her expertise lies in transnational law, private ordering, the governance of digital economies, and the design of new institutional forms for just and sustainable futures. I came across her when she was a guest on the Blockchain Socialist podcast - one of my must-listens - and heard that she was co-Founder and Chief Strategy Officer of the Sovereign Nature Initiative (SNI), a venture which aimed to 'merge nature with digital ecosystems and introduce online communities to ecological stewardship whilst developing novel funding mechanisms for vital biodiversity protection and restoration'. you'll hear more about this in the conversation that follows, but I want to emphasise that the SNI team designed and implemented the Decentralised Ecological Economics Protocol (DEEP), which demonstrated how blockchain infrastructure can serve biodiversity goals. Over two years, SNI developed and distributed more than one million digital collectibles, activating new models of ecological value creation.Currently, Andrea leads a Dutch Research Council-funded VENI project on Decentralised Autonomous Organisations (DAOs) and their potential to reshape economic governance from below. She also serves as Acting Director of Research at the Amsterdam Center for International Law, where she guides strategic research planning and foster interdisciplinary collaboration. She also co-developed and launched an Advanced LLM in Technology Governance with a public purpose orientation, an effort that included curriculum design, funding acquisition, and stakeholder engagement.One of Andrea's superpowers is the ability to take complex concepts and make them comprehensible to ordinary people: blockchain, cryptocurrency, the difference between Bitcoin and Ethereum, the potential for technology to be used to heal as well as the many ways it is already being used to harm, so we spent the first half of our conversation exploring the baselines of where we are and what's happening in the world. I refer to Andrea's blog post, 'Who gets to bet on the future?' which first appeared on her Transformative Private Law Blog and is linked in the show notes. She mentioned several books and I've linked those in the show notes too, because they were new to me, and completely mind blowing. I found ExoCapitalism as a pdf where you decide what you pay - this is the value of small presses that actually get what their books are discussing - and Protocols for Post Capitalist Expression is open source - you can read it and engage in the process with others in the Economic Space Agency.

He is also a former Assistant Attorney General, White House Fellow and Florida Senator. In 2016, Aronberg created a Sober Homes Task Force that made more than 120 arrests for patient brokering and insurance fraud in the rehab industry, and has led to several new Florida laws and regulations that have become the model for other states. Aronberg's efforts also convinced Google to restrict advertisements and improve screening for addiction treatment. The crackdown in rogue sober homes and corrupted drug treatment centers contributed to a dramatic decrease in opioid-caused deaths in Palm Beach County. Dave Aronberg was born in Miami. He attended public schools before going on to graduate with honors from Harvard College and Harvard Law School. After graduation, he worked in the litigation department of a large South Florida law firm while also working closely with Insurance Commissioner Bill Nelson to investigate European insurance companies that refused to honor World War II-era policies sold to victims of the Holocaust. In 2000, Aronberg was selected to be one of 15 White House Fellows from across the country. In this nonpartisan position, he served in two presidential administrations as a Special Assistant to the Secretary of the Treasury Department for international money laundering, including the laundering of terrorist assets. Dave Aronberg was elected to the State Senate in 2002 as its youngest member and served until 2010. In 2010, Aronberg returned to the Florida Attorney General's Office as a Special Prosecutor for Prescription Drug Trafficking. In his role as the Attorney General's "Drug Czar," Aronberg led an anti-pill mill initiative that helped clean up the pain clinic industry and reduced the record number of people dying each day from oxycodone abuse. Aronberg is a trial skills instructor at Harvard Law School, and frequently appears on cable television as a legal commentator. He is the managing partner of Dave Aronberg Law, P.A., and a strategic partner with Capital City Consulting in West Palm Beach.
