Current Constitutional Issues

COURSE DETAILS

In-person location: 111 Broadway 10th Floor, New York, NY 10006

In honor of Constitution Day, join us for a fascinating and insightful discussion of the current constitutional issues that are being confronted by the courts during the current administration. Some of the topics to be addressed by our expert panel include:

• Congress v. the President: agency shutdowns, eliminating departments, cutting authorized and appropriated spending.
• The President v. the Judiciary: following court orders; is every ruling against the administration the result of rogue judges?
• Immigration and due process.
• Can the President fire independent agency heads? Is Humphrey’s Executor still good law?
• Birthright citizenship.
• Domestic use of the military.
• The Law Firm cases.
• Cases involving higher education.
• …and more!

After the conclusion of the program, LIVE attendees will have the opportunity to purchase new publications by our panelists and have their copies autographed.
