"As this year’s Democratic Convention in Chicago approached, comparisons with the last Chicago Convention, in 1968, were both widespread and understandable. Like 2024, with wars raging abroad and unrest growing at home, with shots fired at political figures, with an incumbent president withdrawing from the race, and with, as a young reporter (my father) put it in 1968, “a mounting sense of powerlessness in the face of events,” 1968 was a tumultuous year in American history." Miller Center director, John J. Farmer, Jr. published a new op-ed in the New Jersey Globe last week. Read his latest piece, Echoes of 1968: https://lnkd.in/eMxUZ23e

Happy Women’s Equality Day! While we celebrate the strides women have made, the numbers show we still have work to do. Women hold only 28% of 535 congressional seats, 31.9% of 310 statewide elective executive offices, 32.8% of 7,386 state legislative seats, and 26.8% of 1,616 mayoral seats (in cities over 30,000 people) nationwide. Keep up with CAWP’s Election Watch to see how these numbers change in November.

Only one in four mayors of cities over 30,000 are women, and many US cities have never elected a woman to serve as their mayor. This panel explores the history of women mayors, including trailblazing gains in recent years, the differences women make when leading their towns and cities, and what can be done to help more women ascend to and succeed in mayor’s offices. Register today to hear from trailblazing women in politics: https://lnkd.in/ecAMPgeq

The 2024 cohort of the Eagleton Science and Politics Program Fellowship gathered for its Closing Ceremony to celebrate and reflect on the Science Fellows' significant contributions during their one-year placement as science aides in the New Jersey Legislature and government departments. Fellows supported work with the New Jersey COVID-19 Pandemic Task Force on Racial and Health Disparities, advanced grid modernization & energy storage initiatives for the Division of Clean Energy, as well as played a key role in addressing pressing emerging issues such as deepfakes. Rutgers University–New Brunswick Chancellor Francine Conway offered the keynote address at the ceremony. Attendees also heard from Senator Bob Smith (NJ-17) on the importance of civic engagement for the common good. Five members of the 2024 cohort have been hired as full-time science analysts by their host offices, and one will continue his career on the federal level as part of the AAAS Science and Technology Policy Fellowships Program in Washington, D.C.
