We will talk about the key events of the Congressional session, including the first (almost) government shutdown, the debt ceiling “crisis” and the Budget Control Act, Cut-Cap-and Balance, the “fiscal cliff” and the beginning of the Speaker’s downfall. Politics continues to sour, with accusations of the targeting of conservative groups by the IRS and calls to impeach President Obama. Pritzker Fellows seminars are off the record and open to current UChicago students only. Seating in the IOP Living Room is limited and available on a first-come, first-served basis. If you have any questions about accessibility, please contact Sarah Palmisciano (spalmisciano@uchicago.edu).
