IMPACT
What can we expect after the tumultuous 2016 election?

 
THIS EVENT IS SOLD OUT
 
 
 
The final vote is tallied and the winners are sworn into office.  Now what?  The consequences of the 2016 election begin and questions abound for what will follow:  
  • How will the financial markets respond?
  • When does the Supreme Court nominee receive a vote?
  • Who will emerge as the new president's appointees?
  • What is the fate of the Trans Pacific Partnership?
  • Gun control...race relations...education...climate warming...Zika...immigration...healthcare and more!
Our two speakers, Bob Shaw and Dr. Susan McManus, will lead the discussion.
