Akin Gump public law and policy practice co-head Brian Pomper and fellow partner Brendan Dunn have been quoted in the Bloomberg article “How 14 Policy Scenarios Might Change After the U.S. Election.”
Dunn discussed what could happen with a possible Supreme Court appointment if Joe Biden were to win, but Republicans were to hold on to the majority in the Senate. He predicted that Biden might nominate a relative centrist like Justice Elena Kagan, knowing that Republicans, in control of the chamber, would reject a more liberal nominee.
Pomper, addressing the issue of trade, predicted that if Biden wins, President Trump’s national security tariffs on steel and aluminum imported from key allies would be reversed. “No single act has angered our trading partners more,” Pomper said.
