Georgia College hosts an excellent annual Constitution Week celebration, including an event focused on U.S. Supreme Court cases from the prior term. This year, I joined a panel with lawyers who represented parties in Bostock v. Clayton County and Chiafalo v. Washington. We discussed sex-based employment discrimination, “faithless electors,” DACA, the legacy of departed Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, and the role of institutionalist Chief Justice John Roberts as Congress wages a bitter partisan battle for the Court’s future.

I recently sat down with Dan McDonald of WRGC 88.3 and Jehan El-Jourbagy, assistant professor of business law and ethics at Georgia College. We discussed the recent term of the U.S. Supreme Court, including cases on reproductive rights, religious freedom, and presidential power. We also talked about the pivotal role Chief Justice John Roberts has played over the past two terms and what that might mean for the Court’s future.

It’s that time of year again, when I team up with WRGC 88.3’s Daniel McDonald to discuss important cases and themes from the recently-concluded SCOTUS term.  In this program, we discuss the U.S. Census citizenship question, partisan gerrymandering, and the evolving role of Chief Justice John Roberts.

I sat down with Dan McDonald of WRGC 88.3 to discuss retiring Justice Anthony Kennedy’s legacy as well as potential changes under SCOTUS nominee Judge Brett Kavanaugh.

There’s a lot more to your ballot than the top of the ticket!  This year, Georgia voters have four opportunities to amend the Georgia Constitution to address issues such as public school management, funding to fight sexual exploitation, the fate of our state’s judicial watchdog agency, and taxes on the sale of fireworks.  Make sure you are informed before you step into the voting booth!  WRGC’s Dan McDonald and I discuss the four questions you’ll see on Georgia ballots Nov. 8th.

The U.S. Supreme Court’s 2015-16 term was marked by the death of Justice Antonin Scalia and a few remarkable punts and no decisions from a divided eight-justice Court.  Still, the Court issued plenty of consequential rulings, both before and after Scalia’s passing.  Listen in as I discuss a few key decisions with WRGC’s Dan McDonald.
