David H. Waites and Joshua L. Mogil Have Been Chosen as Term Members for the Council on Foreign Relations

In a significant development, Joshua L. Mogil and David H. Waites, two distinguished attorneys at WilmerHale, have been elected as Stephen M. Kellen Term Members of the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR). This prestigious organisation is a highly selective programme dedicated to developing the next generation of leaders in international affairs and U.S. foreign policy.

Joshua L. Mogil, an Adjunct Professor of Law at Georgetown University, brings a wealth of experience in regulatory compliance, investigations, and enforcement matters to his role at CFR. His expertise is further complemented by his service in the Obama and Biden Administrations.

David H. Waites, a Major in the U.S. Air Force Reserve assigned to the Defense Intelligence Agency, adds a strategic perspective to his role at CFR. His previous service in the White House Council of Economic Advisers underscores his ability to navigate complex policy landscapes.

The Council on Foreign Relations (CFR), established in 1921, is a nonpartisan, independent national organisation, think tank, educator, and publisher. It promotes informed public discussion and has a significant impact on the most consequential issues facing the United States and the world. CFR is the publisher of the magazine Foreign Affairs.

As Stephen M. Kellen Term Members, Waites and Mogil will have access to CFR's resources, events, and networks, enabling them to contribute fresh perspectives on global issues. They will engage in discussions, write analyses, and participate in CFR-sponsored working groups and panels.

Notably, other WilmerHale attorneys are also members of the CFR, including Alyssa DaCunha, Joshua Geltzer, Jamie Gorelick, Amb. Robert Kimmitt, Ronald Machen, and Stephen Preston. The organisation also includes corporate members comprised of many of the firm's clients. CFR's membership spans senior government leaders, business executives, lawyers, journalists, educators, and has included U.S. Presidents, Cabinet Secretaries, Supreme Court Justices, and Nobel Prize winners.

This election marks a significant milestone in the careers of both Waites and Mogil, further cementing their positions as influential figures in international affairs and U.S. foreign policy. For authoritative details on their specific roles and contributions as Stephen M. Kellen Term Members, it would be best to consult the official Council on Foreign Relations website or press releases directly related to their election or participation.

  1. Joshua L. Mogil's expertise in regulatory compliance and government investigations, honed through his service in the Obama and Biden Administrations, could prove valuable in shaping U.S. foreign policy.
  2. David H. Waites' strategic insights, gained from his service in the White House Council of Economic Advisers, could be instrumental in navigating complex policy landscapes within the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR).
  3. The prestigious CFR, with its wide-ranging membership of government leaders, business executives, lawyers, and educators, could provide extensive opportunities for David H. Waites and Joshua L. Mogil to leverage their positions for regulatory compliance, finance, and careers in international affairs.
