Week No. 8 Assessing Biden’s First 100 Days: Where do we go from here?
Thursday, April 21, 2021
Live at 6:00 pm via Zoom
This event is free and open to the public
The 100-day mark is an important yardstick for assessing a modern President’s performance. It’s traditionally been the “honeymoon” period, providing a window of opportunity for new Administrations to move campaign promises from rhetoric to reality. Although most Americans can’t seem to agree on much these days, we can probably agree that these are atypical times, and that makes Biden’s “honeymoon” a complex one. The Biden-Harris Administration faces numerous historic challenges at home and abroad, all while attempting to move its agenda forward. Join us as we discuss where the Administration has and has not made headway and why and also for a conversation about what comes next.
This event continues a new spring series, No. 46: Examining the First 100 Days of the Biden Administration, that focuses on the most important developments in the early days of the Biden Administration. Guest speakers over the semester examine the ability of the 46th President and his team to affect change in some of the most vital policy areas that impact all of us.
