Tuesday round-up
Briefly:
- Sam Baker of National Journal suggests that, if “you want to know why the Supreme Court is poised to strike a major blow to affirmative action, focusing on Antonin Scalia’s comments about black students and ‘slower-track’ universities might be missing the point.”
- At LinkedIn Pulse, Dawinder Sidhu considers how the Supreme Court should address calls from federal courts of appeals for “an updated approach to the Thirteenth Amendment.”
- At NFIB, Luke Wake discusses a petition for certiorari that the Pacific Legal Foundation filed on behalf of “a small business property owner who was denied the opportunity to raise a takings claim in federal court, notwithstanding the fact that the state courts in Connecticut had already demonstrated a lack of concern for their asserted federal rights.”
[Correction: An earlier version of this post referred to a petition for certiorari filed by the National Federation of Independent Business, but the petition was in fact filed by the Pacific Legal Foundation.]
