At our annual meeting in March, Corporate Voices will be joined by three leaders
of The Campaign to Fix the Debt for a lively discussion on the country’s debt crisis, the threat it poses to our global competitiveness and prosperity–and how U.S. companies must be involved in the solutions. The Campaign is a nonpartisan movement to put America on a better fiscal and economic path. It has been busy mobilizing key communities–including many prominent business leaders–and individuals from a variety of social, economic and political perspectives who want to see elected officials step up to solve our nation’s enormous fiscal challenges.
Panelists will include:
- Former U.S. Congressman Victor Fazio, who served for 20 years as a member of Congress, representing California’s 3rd District. During his tenure of distinguished public service, Hon. Fazio was appointed to the House Appropriations Committee, serving as a subcommittee chairman or ranking member for 18 years. He was chairman of the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee. Hon. Fazio is currently Senior Advisor at Corporate Voices’ member company, Akin Gump Strauss Hauer & Feld LLP.
- Former U.S. Congressman Jim Nussle represented the state of Iowa for 16 years in the U.S. House of Representatives before he served for President George W. Bush as
the Director of the White House Office of Management and Budget. As the current president and chief operating officer of Growth Energy, a trade association made up of America ethanol companies and industry partners who are committed to the promise of growing America’s economy through renewable energy, Rep. Nussle focuses his efforts developing creative policy approaches and proactive grassroots advocacy.
The two will be moderated by Frank Micciche, Chief of Staff at Fix the Debt. Previously, Mr. Micciche worked at McKenna Long & Aldridge LLP where he specialized in developing and implementing public policy strategies for clients working to help states and the federal government innovate in the area of health care – with a particular focus on the establishment of health insurance exchanges.
