remove language indicating that he had been separated "for cause" and that the Library of Congress had agreed to pay $100,000 in the settlement. Crimes of War Education Project Davis was Executive Director of the Crimes of War Education Project from 2010 to 2012. He was assistant professor at Howard University School of Law from 2011 to 2015, teaching legal reasoning, research and writing, oral advocacy and national security law. Administrative law judge Davis was an administrative law judge with the U.S. Department of Labor from 2015 to 2019, ruling on workers compensation cases involving issues from black lung disease to whistleblower cases, immigration visa appeals, child labor and other cases related to labor laws. In the summer of 2019 Davis ruled that a Baltimore, MD-based subsidiary of Enterprise Rent-A-Car, Enterprise RAC Company of Baltimore, had violated United States labor law while contracting for the Federal government. In his decision he ordered the company to pay a $6.6 million fine and offer other restitution for discrimination against African Americans in its hiring, training, and promotion selections. In an article on the lawsuit that preceded the Department of Labor ruling, The Baltimore Sun quoted an unnamed Enterprise company spokeswoman who contended that Enterprise had a "strong record of equal opportunity" in their hiring and employment practices and pointed to the company's recruitment outreach at HBCUs. 2020 congressional campaign On November 17, 2019, Davis announced his congressional bid for North Carolina's 11th congressional district held by Republican Mark Meadows. Davis says he initially ran for Congress because he did not see a Democrat challenger running at the time that would beat Meadows. However, once Meadows dropped out of the race, he continued running because "I figured I’ve got 30-plus years of defending democracy, and just to sit back now and watch it go down the drain just wasn’t palatable." Davis entered the Democratic primary along with Democrats Michael O'Shea, Gina Collias, Phillip Price, and Steve Woodsmall. Davis won the primary on March 3, 2020, with 47.35 percent of the vote. Collias was a distant second with 22.67 percent. Davis lost the 2020 election to Madison Cawthorn, 54.5% to 42.4%. Endorsements Early endorsements for Davis came from progressive Democrats, legal scholars, and human rights activists.
