Here’s the full description: “How do U.S. foreign policies affect our daily lives? What is the connection between our own regional economy and how the nation’s policymakers deal with matters of climate change, trade, conflict, and human rights? Given the interdependency of nations, what should be America’s future role in the global arena?

“Congressman John Garamendi will describe critical issues facing our policymakers, including the Trans-Pacific Partnership and the global agreement on climate change, and how they affect us in California. As a Member of the House Armed Services Committee, he will explain the global terror threats from ISIS and the complex relations in the Middle East. He will discuss what role the U.S. can play in eradicating hunger, disease, and violence in the world today.
