One Night, One Heart 2007

1. Holding Court
Special Guests: The Honorable Anna Eshoo & The Honorable Jackie Speier
Host: Joe Cotchett
Dinner at: PlumpJack Café - San Francisco

Have you ever wanted the ear from those on the front lines crafting the legislation for, or defending the rights of, those causes that require protection from powerful special interests? Then this dinner is for you because - in addition to award-winning wines paired with innovative cuisine from one of the City's most captivating restaurants - justice will be served! Host Joseph W. Cotchett has been named one of the 100 most influential lawyers in the nation for the past 10 years. He is joined by Congresswoman Anna Eshoo, champion of consumer, health care, and environmental causes, and the former California State Senator Jackie Speier, whose recently released book, This is Not the Life I Ordered, is a very special look at our ability to turn "misfortunate" events to joy-filled opportunities. Together, these three powerhouses will share their well-earned and profound inside knowledge of the various workings of the legislative and justice systems. More importantly, you will be enriched by learning how good government, strategic litigation, well-crafted legislation, and personal strength result in the kind of civil liberties and innovations that we continually must fight to preserve.
