The Senate Confirmation Process: It’s Not Over Until It’s Over
September 21, 2020
The political appointments process does not end with nomination – that is only the beginning!
In this session Catalyst CEO Algene Sajery joins The Leadership Council for Women in National Security (LCWINS) for webinar focusing on how to successfully navigate the Senate confirmation process. Our speakers will provide advice on filling out questions for the record (QFRs) and about testifying in front of Congress during a confirmation hearing. The webinar also features Jamie Jones Miller, former Principal Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense for Legislative Affairs as moderator, and the speakers include Ann Elise Sauer, who was the Republican Staff Director of the Senate Armed Services Committee, and Gen. Lori Robinson, USAF (Ret.).
Algene is on the Steering Committee of LCWINS, an organization of women and allies from across the political spectrum working to advance gender inclusion at the highest levels of the U.S. national security and foreign policy workforce.
