Dennis Aftergut Is Facing The Brutal Facts But Keeping His Unwavering Faith
from On Democracy with FPWellman · host Fred Wellman
Dennis Aftergut is a former federal prosecutor who has argued and won cases in the Supreme Court of the United States and of California. As Chief Assistant City Attorney in San Francisco in the era before Obergefell v. Hodges, Dennis successfully defended suits brought by Pat Robertson’s legal foundation and United Airlines challenging San Francisco’s ground-breaking Equal Benefits Ordinance, a nondiscrimination law assuring workers with domestic partners the same employment benefits as afforded to straight employees who were married. Today he is a constant source of legal perspective on the insanity of the right in a host of publications. He and Fred discuss the absolute flood of legal issues around the country today and the state of the Judiciary as a pillar of our democracy.
