What: Due to popular demand, we have asked frequent MSNBC Contributor/Legal Analyst Jill Wine-Banks to speak to us again. And she said yes! Jill was so popular last year that the event completely sold out. We hope you will save the date and join us for this very special evening. Jill Wine-Banks will be giving us her insights into our national political situation and so much more. A former Watergate prosecutor, Jill is particularly well-equipped to discuss Trump and his legal woes. We’re sure you’ll want to join us.

A sought-after speaker, Jill appears before professional, political, women’s and business groups, universities and law schools.
