Tennessee Attorney General Jonathan Skrmetti has had a busy first year as the Volunteer State’s top legal officer. A keynote speaker at this year’s Burton Awards, which recognize excellence in the law, Skrmetti joined Pro Say to talk about his defense of anti-drag show legislation, gun rights and the delicate balance between litigation and policy work. Also at the Burton’s, former Supreme Court Justice Stephen Breyer opens up about originalism, his label as a pragmatist and potential reforms to the high court. This week’s episode also features a sitdown with World Justice Project Executive Director Betsy Andersen, who discussed the rule of law and its application to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. Finally, former Library of Congress general counsel Elizabeth Pugh joins the show to discuss what it means to be the top lawyer of the country’s oldest federal cultural institution and the legacy of Nicolas Cage’s National Treasure on the duty of federal recordkeeping.
