WHAT’S WORKING IN WASHINGTON – EP 521 – BALANCING ACTS – FRASER JACKSON AND
WILLIAM VON HIPPEL

and policy in the Washington D.C. region. They are stories explaining why local
innovation often influences the federal government and are told by a wide
variety of voices across demographics and industries.

BETWEEN THE LINES WITH THE ADMINISTRATIVE CONFERENCE OF THE UNITED STATES


TALKING ADMINISTRATIVE LAW

Many Americans may not spend much time thinking about it, but administrative law
plays an essential role in many of the functions government agencies perform
every single day. In each episode of Between the Lines, we’ll explore issues
ranging from access to justice and court deference to agency interpretations of
law to unnecessary burdens placed upon users of administrative processes. Join
host Andrew Fois, the chair of the Administrative Conference of the United
States, for in-depth discussions with ACUS participants, academic experts, and
government officials on contemporary issues in administrative law – and why they
matter to agencies’ missions.

EYE ON WASHINGTON WITH JESSICA KLEMENT


A CONVERSATION WITH KIM WEAVER

While the day-to-day work of federal employees is determined by their agencies,
key decisions on federal pay, return to office policies, budgets, retirement and
health benefits – and more – are made at government-wide levels by OPM, OMB,
and/or politically-motivated legislators and administrations. With multiple
actors and complex policies, it’s often difficult for even the savviest of
federal employees and retirees to make heads from tails. Join longtime federal
community advocate Jessica Klement and her guests as they cut through the noise
and provide you with the information you need to understand how emerging
policies will affect you – or not – and make informed decisions about your
future.
