3rd
Annual
The Sorensen Institute for Political Leadership at the
University of Virginia Is pleased to announce our 3rd
Annual Autumn Gala to be held Tuesday evening, Nov.
10, in Pentagon City’s Ritz Carlton in Arlington.
Our featured speakers will be U.S. Sen. Tim Kaine;
Admiral John Harvey, Virginia state Secretary of Veterans
and Defense Affairs; and Philip Zelikow, former executive
director of the national 9/11 Commission.
Massimo Calabresi, of Time, Inc., will serve as the
moderator of a discussion of the collaborative and
bipartisan efforts to introduce legislation in Congress to
better define the nation’s war powers.
The event is an annual Sorensen Institute fund-raiser
attended by 200-300 Northern Virginia alumni, political
and business leaders and is truly bipartisan one week after
Election Day. The discussion topic grew out of a study at
UVA’s Miller Center of Public Affairs co-chaired by Sens.
Kaine and John McCain about updating the involvement
of the Congress in declaring war.
The public is invited to attend and individual tickets
are on sale for the event at $300 per person or through
table sponsorships. For information, please call Colleen
Smith at (434) 982.4910. Here is a link to our Gala:
