November 4, 2025

Pound Hall; 101 Ballantine Classroom
Where are the tiers of scrutiny in the text? Why is the Fourteenth Amendment so hard to understand, and where are the originalists? Join us as Jonathan Mitchell, star litigator, academic, and drafter of Texas’s “heartbeat” abortion ban, as he reassesses the Fourteenth Amendment and proposes a textual framework to understand its requirements. Paninis will be served.
