We are saddened by the passing of Dr. Clarence B. Jones (’59). A distinguished attorney, civil rights strategist, educator, & trusted advisor to MLK, he helped shape the moral & legal foundations of the Civil Rights Movement. Read more about his legacy: https://t.co/H3xWd2w97i

#BULawProf @JedShug notes that SCOTUS is selective of the parts of the law they prefer, "The Roberts Court has adopted for itself a line-item veto." More analysis of this session's decisions: https://t.co/pThbBPKL06 w/@steve_vladeck (@georgetownlaw) Reporter: @apantazi of @axios

#BULawProf @JedShug provides insights on the SCOTUS Slaughter decision: “Gorsuch's agenda — his deeper agenda, his big picture long-term agenda — is to strike down much of the administrative state to reduce executive power.” More: https://t.co/XW9qj9yYdu

Frankly, I am stunned reading Kavanaugh's dissenting view: the 14th A. does NOT guarantee birthright citizenship.

He did not read the amicus briefs.
He did not even read Jackson's concurrence, which relied on my research to refute Kavanaugh's unsupported assertions (p. 8)

The Supreme Court STRIKES DOWN Trump's anti-birthright executive order.
I was honored that Sotomayor cited 5 of my articles in her Slaughter dissent yesterday.
It's a sweeter honor today as Jackson cited my historical work supporting birthright, p. 12-13, forthcoming in UC L.J.

#BULawProf @JedShug's scholarship also contributed to yesterday's SCOTUS decision in the Birthright Citizenship case. Justice Jackson cites his work in her concurrence: https://t.co/e6WHR70ZVF

#BULawProf @JedShug was cited in Justice Sotomayor's dissent of the SCOTUS decision on Slaughter. He notes, “The Roberts court is maximizing presidential power in a way that’s inconsistent with what the Founders and Congress were intending to do." More: https://t.co/1Hl4NwsUfy

During the #BULaw Shapiro Lecture, Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor shared with the audience, “I hope that you, young lawyers in the room, will live a life like mine, filled with purpose & filled with a sense that you’re doing good work. Just stay motivated to do it, okay?”
