A Burning Question: Sparking Federal Protection Of Inmate Firefighters Through California’S Conservation Camp Program, Zachary T. Remijas

Journal of the National Association of Administrative Law Judiciary

The mounting demand for inmate firefighters in response to increased disaster relief has made such individuals an indispensable resource to the State of California.

Automation: Creative Destruction And The Race For Equilibrium, Dustin Rabi

Journal of the National Association of Administrative Law Judiciary

Journal of the National Association of Administrative Law Judiciary
