Hi Everyone and Welcome Back!

This week on 🎧The Nick Halaris Show we are featuring another of my old law school friends, Congressman Dan Goldman.  Dan is someone who has dedicated his life to public service and has inspiring track record fighting to preserve the rule of law in this country.  He currently represents New York’s 10th District in the House of Representatives and has worked as an Assistant US Attorney in New York and as a criminal justice reformer for the better part of two decades.  For those who follow American politics closely, you’ll also recognize him as the lead counsel in the 2019 impeachment of President Trump.  Whatever your politics, you have to admit that Dan’s performance on such a high-profile, pressure-packed stage was incredibly impressive.  It was surreal for me to see my friend up there on that first day of the hearing so cool and so confident as he delivered a masterclass in legal oratory.

In the last election, Dan found a way to stand out in a crowded field in one of the most high-profile Congressional districts in the country, beating even former New York Mayor Bill de Blasio for the spot.  With the intense Republican infighting over the Speaker of the House seat, the government shutdown drama, the wars in Ukraine and now Israel, a looming Presidential election, you can hardly dream-up a crazier time to start in Congress.  I wanted to have Dan on the show to get his insider’s take on some of the big issues of the day.      

In this fascinating episode, we cover:

• Dan’s harrowing experience being with his family in Israel the first day of the terrorist attacks and his take on what America should do to support Israel in this moment

• What it’s like to be on the front lines in the battle against public corruption and organized crime

• Why the MAGA takeover of the Republican Party represents a dangerous threat to the rule of law in America

• Dan’s vision for comprehensive criminal justice reform &

• Much, much more

Stay tuned to the end for an inspiring conversation about the origin of Dan’s steadfast commitment to public service.  Whatever our politics, we have to admire the spirit of service and the sense of responsibility animating Dan’s life.  This is what impactful citizenship is all about.   

I hope you all enjoy this episode.  Thanks for tuning-in!
