Today's dangerous Supreme Court decision ignoring the real harms of conversion "therapy," insultingly issued on Transgender Day of Visibility, is another example of the Roberts Court distorting the 1st Amendment. Read more: www.theusconstitution.org/news/cac-rel...

J. Jackson minces no words in her dissent in today's conversion therapy case: "It is baffling that we could now be standing on the edge of a precipitous drop in the quality of healthcare services in America. But the Court sees fit to bring us one step closer to that fate today."

More from J. Jackson on what today's #SCOTUS decision could mean: "So, to put it bluntly, the Court could be ushering in an era of unprofessional and unsafe medical care administered by effectively unsupervised healthcare providers."

Powerful words from J. Jackson in today's #SCOTUS conversion therapy case: "Before now, licensed medical professionals had to adhere to standards when treating patients ... Today, the Court turns its back on that tradition. And,
to be completely frank, no one knows what will happen now."

Trump’s Voting Nemesis Is at the Supreme Court. We Can’t Afford for SCOTUS to Get It Wrong. Even the court’s conservative justices should have a hard time swallowing arguments that violate so many pillars of legal reasoning.

Voting by mail has been an important part of our democracy since the Civil War, but the ability to vote by mail is under attack at #SCOTUS today. Read more from @davidhgans.bsky.social: slate.com/news-and-pol...

Trump v. Barbara | Constitutional Accountability Center

Read our amicus brief on behalf of an ideologically diverse group of scholars defending the constitutional guarantee of birthright citizenship.

The Supreme Court’s Birthright Citizenship Decision Hinges on a Case You’ve Never Heard Of To be sure, Lynch is just one case, but it is an important one. The Supreme Court should appreciate that.

At #SCOTUS next month, an 1844 inheritance dispute might be instrumental in determining the fate of millions of American-born infants. Read more from @eeksmita.bsky.social: slate.com/news-and-pol...

Rise Economy v. Vought | Constitutional Accountability Center

BREAKING: Citing our amicus brief on behalf of Members of Congress, Judge Davila holds that the Trump administration's attempt to defund the CFPB was unlawful. Read our brief: www.theusconstitution.org/litigation/r...

My latest @Slate on the huge upcoming S. Ct case attacking voting by mail. The legal challenge butchers the text of federal law and turns a blind eye to the long history, dating back to the Civil War, of states permitting post-Election Day receipt of absentee ballots.

Smith v. Kind | Constitutional Accountability Center

Prison officers trapped Antonio Smith in a freezing cell without clothing or blankets for nearly 24 hours, but the courts claimed that the officers couldn’t be held accountable. Read our brief to #SCOTUS explaining why qualified immunity has gone too far: www.theusconstitution.org/litigation/s...

Thank you to @myconstitution.bsky.social for submitting an amicus brief in our SCOTUS case, Noem v. AOL. The fact is asylum saves lives and we're grateful for the support in upholding the human right to safety.

This important new scholarship from my @myconstitution.bsky.social colleague @davidhgans.bsky.social has the added bonus of also being incredibly interesting. It's definitely a must-read!

We Seem to Have the Supreme Court’s Originalism Fail of the Term The court is becoming “a dried husk of whatever people used to think it was.”

At argument in the big independent agency case, there was a "shocking lack of interest in the Constitution’s history and original meaning by the court’s conservative supermajority." Read more in @slate.com from my @myconstitution.bsky.social colleague Brian Frazelle: slate.com/news-and-pol...

Bonus 183: Martin v. Mott The Trump administration claims Justice Story's 1827 ruling establishes the President's unreviewable power to decide when domestic use of the military is needed. It doesn't come close to saying that.

The Trump administration's arguments that the federalization of the National Guard can't be reviewed by the courts are just plain wrong. Read more about our amicus briefs setting the record straight from @stevevladeck.bsky.social: www.stevevladeck.com/p/bonus-183-...

No Kings As the president escalates his authoritarian power grab, the NO KINGS non-violent movement continues to rise stronger. We are united once again to remind the world: America has No Kings and the power ...

Throughout our constitutional history, one message has remained clear: no thrones, no crowns, no kings. www.nokings.org

"In a few weeks’ time—when we turn to our regular docket—we will decide cases of far less import with far more process and reflection." - Kagan, J., dissenting from the latest #SCOTUS shadow docket decision www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/24p...

President Trump's repeated attempts to usurp Congress's power of the purse are plainly unconsitutional, as constitutional text and history make clear. Read @myconstitution.bsky.social's amicus brief to learn more about this history & why Trump's actions violate the separation of powers. 2/2

"In 'defining the ... powers' of the new nation, the American Founders firmly rejected the historic 'Prerogatives of the British Monarch.' ... [T]here was no question that Congress would be granted the powers to tax, spend, and appropriate funds." 1/2

A characteristically very thoughtful post about one of the many reasons why recent #SCOTUS shadow docket rulings are so deeply troubling -- well worth a read!

I'd really been enjoying the new season of @onlymurdershulu.bsky.social, but I like free speech a lot more. @jimmykimmel.com

Nairne v. Landry | Constitutional Accountability Center

In a win for voting rights, the Fifth Circuit just upheld the constitutionality of Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act and held that Louisiana’s legislative maps diluted the voting strength of Black voters. Read our amicus brief: www.theusconstitution.org/litigation/n...

American Federation of Government Employees, AFL-CIO v. Trump | Constitutional Accountability Center

The amicus brief we filed in the case does a deep dive into the history Justice Jackson discusses in her dissent. Read it here: www.theusconstitution.org/litigation/a...

It's deeply disappointing that #SCOTUS is staying an injunction blocking Trump's unlawful reorganization of the federal government. As Justice Jackson's dissent explained, "our system does not allow the President to rewrite laws on his own."
