Event Details
Please join the ACS Los Angeles Lawyer Chapter for a fall happy hour featuring ACS President Phil Brest and ACS Executive Vice President Zinelle October.
Phil joined ACS in January, having previously served as the White House Senior Counsel who directed the Biden administration’s judicial nominations. Phil helped lead efforts to confirm 235 Article III judges—the most by any Presidential administration in nearly five decades. Before joining the Biden White House, he spent six years working for the Senate Judiciary Committee, most recently as Chief Counsel for Nominations and Senior Advisor to U.S. Senator Dick Durbin (D-Ill).
Zinelle has written and spoken about, among other things, voting rights, the importance of community engagement, protecting democracy and the rule of law, and defending our Constitution. Zinelle received her JD from FSU and practiced law in Florida and New York before joining ACS.
