Before joining the State Senate\, Min was a law professor at UC Ir vine\, where he taught and researched in the area of business law. He is o ne of the country’s leading experts on banking and housing policy\, and has testified six times before Congress on these issues. Jane is also a la w professor at UC Irvine\, where she teaches Family Law\, runs the law sch ool’s Domestic Violence Clinic\, and is the founder and director of UCI ’s Initiative to End Family Violence\, one of the university’s signatu re programs that is working to develop interdisciplinary solutions to dome stic violence and abuse.\n\nDave is the son of Korean immigrants who grew up during the Korean War and its aftermath\, at a time when food was scarc e and the economy was struggling. Thanks to the generosity of American GIs \, Dave’s parents came to appreciate the unique flavor and texture of Sp am as well as the values that America has always stood for. They came to t he United States in 1971\, got married and had two boys—Dave and his bro ther Andrew—who they raised here in the Golden State. Their story is the American Dream\, and it’s a story that has been shared by millions of o ther new Americans over the past several centuries.\n\nBecause of the valu es he inherited from his parents\, including a passionate love of this cou ntry and what it has always represented\, Dave has spent his career in pub lic service\, working to improve the economic opportunities available to w orking families. After graduating from Wharton and Harvard Law School\, he began his career at the Securities and Exchange Commission\, turning down higher paying jobs to try to hold Wall Street accountable in the aftermat h of the Enron and Worldcom accounting scandals. Dave went on to work for U.S. Senator Charles Schumer as a senior economic policy advisor and then the Center for American Progress as an economic policy director before com ing back home to California to teach at UCI.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][ /vc_row][vc_row disable_element="yes"][vc_column][vc_column_text]\nDiscuss ion topics will include:\n• USMCA\n• Tariffs\n• Infrastructure\n• Immigration\n[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_ btn title="MAKE RESERVATIONS HERE" color="sky" align="center" link="url:ht tps%3A%2F%2Fus02web.zoom.us%2Fwebinar%2Fregister%2FWN_Je8pXk_fTcmBUUl01OGy Yw|target:_blank"][vc_column_text]\nEvent Sponsored by\n[/vc_column_text][ vc_column_text][/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row disable_eleme nt="yes"][vc_column width="1/3"][vc_column_text]\nEvent Sponsored by\n[/vc _column_text][vc_column_text][/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width ="1/3"][vc_column_text]\nMeeting Sponsor\n[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text ][/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width="1/3"][vc_column_text]\nBre akfast treats provided by\n[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text][/vc_column_te xt][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row disable_element="yes"][vc_column][vc_colum n_text]\nBreakfast treats will be provided.\n[/vc_column_text][vc_column_t ext][/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_separator ][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row disable_element="yes"][vc_column][vc_column_ text]\nThis event is free to the public\, but please make reservations so we can plan for food and seating.\n[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row] ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.newportbeach.com/wp-content/uploads/ 2021/01/WakeUpNewport-Feb2021-DaveMinn-300x300-1.jpg CATEGORIES:Chamber Events,Featured END:VEVENT BEGIN:VTIMEZONE TZID:America/Los_Angeles X-LIC-LOCATION:America/Los_Angeles BEGIN:STANDARD DTSTART:20201101T010000 TZOFFSETFROM:-0700 TZOFFSETTO:-0800 TZNAME:PST END:STANDARD END:VTIMEZONE END:VCALENDAR
