For Goodness’ Sake: A Two-Part Proposal For Remedying The U.S. Charity/Justice Imbalance, Fran Quigley
For Goodness’ Sake: A Two-Part Proposal For Remedying The U.S. Charity/Justice Imbalance, Fran Quigley
Fran Quigley
The U.S. approach to addressing economic and social needs strongly favors individual and corporate charity over the establishment and enforcement of economic and social rights. This charity/justice imbalance has a severely negative impact on the nation’s poor, who despite the overall U.S. wealth struggle with inadequate access to healthcare, housing, and nutrition. This article suggests a two-part approach for remedying the charity/justice imbalance in the U.S.: First, the U.S. should eliminate the charitable tax deduction, a policy creation that does not effectively address economic and social needs, forces an inequitable poverty relief and tax burden on the middle class, and …
The Rise And Rise Of The One Percent: Getting To Thomas Piketty's Wealth Dystopia, Shi-Ling Hsu
The Rise And Rise Of The One Percent: Getting To Thomas Piketty's Wealth Dystopia, Shi-Ling Hsu
Shi-Ling Hsu
Thomas Piketty's Capital in the Twenty-first Century, which is surely one of the very few economics treatises ever to be a best-seller, has parachuted into an intensely emotional and deeply divisive American debate: the problem of inequality in the United States. Piketty's core argument is that throughout history, the rate of return on private capital has usually exceeded the rate of economic growth, expressed by Piketty as the relation r > g. If true, this relation means that the wealthy class – who are the predominant owners of capital – will grow their wealth faster than economies grow, which …

Allyship To The Intersex Community On Nonconsensual Genital "Normalizing" Surgery, Robert Hupf Jr
Allyship To The Intersex Community On Nonconsensual Genital "Normalizing" Surgery, Robert Hupf Jr
Robert Hupf Jr
The fight against nonconsensual genital “normalizing” surgery, a primary concern of the intersex community, has gained traction within recent years but needs more support from the larger LGBTQ movement. Using an allyship framework, this Article argues that any such support be based on the lived experiences, concerns, and voices of the intersex community itself; in the past, well-intentioned efforts have advocated for solutions other than those sought after by the community, oftentimes resulting in negligible or even harmful results. The solution sought after by the intersex community is an immediate moratorium on the practice of nonconsensual genital “normalizing” surgery, a …

The Future of Legal Aid
Abstract
This article predicts the future of legal aid in the U.S. It begins by examining the tools other countries use for shaping the future of legal aid and explains why these methods will not work in the U.S. It also acknowledges that changes that require a significant increase in funding are not likely to occur in the foreseeable future. What’s left are methods that allow providers to do more with the resources they have, namely the adoption of systems. The U.S. is currently experiencing a revolution in the use of systems to expand and …
The Second Amendment: A Reasonable Interpretation In The 21st Century, Kaleb D. Wingate
The Second Amendment: A Reasonable Interpretation In The 21st Century, Kaleb D. Wingate
Kaleb D Wingate
The interpretation of the Second Amendment has been the subject of increased litigation throughout the last several years. Challenges to the Second Amendment and related legislation tend to create polarized responses from various political organizations. These responses, commonly in the form of votes in our legislative branch, impede the progress of reasonable measures to reduce instances of violence across the country. Addressing gun violence in our country must be a goal which exceeds the interest of any political affiliate or lobby. This article suggests reasonable measures our government can take to address the growing problems with gun violence in the …

The Lawyer Rent-Seeker Myth And Public Policy, Teresa J. Schmid
The Lawyer Rent-Seeker Myth And Public Policy, Teresa J. Schmid
Teresa J Schmid
ABSTRACT Two enduring fallacies in public policy are that lawyers are rent seekers who impair rather than stimulate the economy, and that there are too many of them. While lawyers may disagree with the first premise, they tacitly accept the second. These two fallacies have led leaders in both the political and professional arenas to adopt policies that impair access to justice. This study documents the negative effects of those policies and recommends courses of action to reverse those effects.

"Health Care For All:" The Gap Between Rhetoric And Reality In The Affordable Care Act, Vinita Andrapalliyal
"Health Care For All:" The Gap Between Rhetoric And Reality In The Affordable Care Act, Vinita Andrapalliyal
Vinita Andrapalliyal
The rhetoric of “universal health care” and “health care for all” that pervaded the health care debate which culminated in the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (ACA)’s passage. However, the ACA offers reduced to no protections for certain noncitizen groups, specifically: 1) recently-arrived legal permanent residents, 2) nonimmigrants, and 3) the undocumented. This Article explores how the Act fails to ensure “health care for all,” demonstrates the gap between rhetoric and reality by parsing the ACA’s legislative history, and posits reasons for the gap. The ACA’s legislative history suggests that legislators’ biases towards these noncitizen groups, particularly with respect …
South Dakota: Making Dollars And Sense Of Indian Child Removal, Rachael Whitaker
South Dakota: Making Dollars And Sense Of Indian Child Removal, Rachael Whitaker
Rachael Whitaker
South Dakota- Making Dollars and Sense of Indian Child Removal By: Rachael Whitaker In 2004, a South Dakota Governor’s Commission report adamantly denied claims that the state’s Department of Social Services (DSS) is “harvesting Indian children as a cash crop” and “runs nothing more than a state sponsored kidnapping program.” National Public Radio (NPR) broke a story in 2011, claiming South Dakota removed Indian children for profit. Since NPR’s report, the state has remained tight-lipped, advocates have threatened litigation, and Congress has asked for answers. South Dakota has a small population and economy, and it receives almost half of its …
Ideological Voting Applied To The School Desegregation Cases In The Federal Courts Of Appeals From The 1960’S And 70’S, Joe Custer
Joe Custer
This paper considers a research suggestion from Cass Sunstein to analyze segregation cases from the 1960's and 1970's and whether three hypothesis he projected in the article "Ideological Voting on Federal Courts of Appeals: A Preliminary Investigation," 90 Va. L. Rev. 301 (2004), involving various models of judicial ideology, would pertain. My paper considers Sunstein’s three hypotheses in addition to other judicial ideologies to try to empirically determine what was influencing Federal Court of Appeals Judges in regard to Civil Rights issues, specifically school desegregation, in the 1960’s and 1970’s.
Caught In A Trap - Paternity Presumptions In Louisiana, Evelyn L. Wilson
Caught In A Trap - Paternity Presumptions In Louisiana, Evelyn L. Wilson
Evelyn L. Wilson
This article takes a critical look at revisions to Louisiana's 2005 law on presumptions of paternity and advocates for a change so that the presumptions more often reflects the reality that a child born during a later marriage is the child of the mother's current husband and not the child of the mother's former husband, as the 2005 law now presumes.
Punishment And Rights, Benjamin L. Apt
Punishment And Rights, Benjamin L. Apt
Benjamin L. Apt
Prevalent theories of criminal punishment lack a rationale for the precise duration and nature of state-ordered criminal punishment. In practice, too, criminal penalization suffers from inadequate evidence of punitive efficacy. These deficiencies, in theory and in fact, would not be so grave were the state to enjoy unfettered power over the disposition of criminal penalties. However, in societies that recognize legal rights, criminal punishments must be consistent with rights. Efficacy, even where demonstrable, does not suffice as a legal justification for punishment. This article analyzes the source of rights and how they function as primary rules in a legal system. …
For Health's Sake Be Not Colorblind, Ruth Hackford-Peer
For Health's Sake Be Not Colorblind, Ruth Hackford-Peer
Ruth Hackford-Peer
The United States’ past ideology of overt state-sanctioned racism has been replaced by a covert, seemingly race-neutral ideology. This Article looks at the history of racism in the United States and traces the recent shift in ideology and discourse about race, positing that the discourse of “colorblindness” powerfully maintains the racial status quo while purporting to advance race neutrality. Then, using affirmative action as the lens from which to view these shifts in ideology and discourse, this Article analyzes racial disparities in health and healthcare. It highlights some of the health consequences people of color face because they live a …
Regulating The Family: The Impact Of Pro-Family Policy Making Assessments On Women And Non-Traditional Families, Robin S. Maril
Regulating The Family: The Impact Of Pro-Family Policy Making Assessments On Women And Non-Traditional Families, Robin S. Maril
Robin S. Maril
Beginning in the 1980s, pro-family advocates lobbied the Reagan administration to take a stronger, more direct role in enforcing traditional family norms through agency rulemaking. In 1986 the White House Working Group on the Family published a report entitled, The Family: Preserving America’s Future, detailing what its authors perceived to be the biggest threats to the “American household of persons related by blood, marriage or adoption – the traditional . . . family.” These threats included a lax sexual culture carried over from the 1960s, resulting in rising divorce rates, children born “out of wedlock,” and increased acceptance of “alternative …
The Normative Underpinnings Of Taxation, Sagit Leviner Dr.
The Normative Underpinnings Of Taxation, Sagit Leviner Dr.
Sagit Leviner Dr.
Questions about the appropriate rules and mechanisms of taxation are, first and foremost, questions concerning the nature of society. What can be taxed, what cannot, for what purpose, when, and how, are all matters that go to the heart of society and, in particular, concern society’s underlying beliefs and values vis-à-vis the meaning and attainment of justice. This Article explores the role of normative values and theory in tax policymaking. It suggests that a candid elaboration of normative perspectives, and how they shed light on taxation, could lead to a better understanding of society as well as a better tax …

Back To The Future: Introducing Constructive Feminism For The Twenty-First Century: A New Paradigm For The Family And Medical Leave Act, Arianne Renan Barzilay Dr.
Back To The Future: Introducing Constructive Feminism For The Twenty-First Century: A New Paradigm For The Family And Medical Leave Act, Arianne Renan Barzilay Dr.
Arianne Renan Barzilay Dr. (J.S.D., New York University School of Law)
Abstract: At least ninety percent (90%) of American parents, mothers and fathers, say they are experiencing an acute shortage of time spent with family and an intense work-family conflict. This article provides a history and a theory that should inform our conceptualization of work-family regulation. It points to the neglected history of working-class social feminism. It shows how working-class social feminists at the beginning of the twentieth century advocated for “constructive feminism”—government support, by way of labor regulation, of what this article terms “multidimensionalism”—a life enriched by meaningful dimensions of work, family, civic participation, and culture. The Article extends this …
Labor Regulation As Family Regulation: Decent Work And Decent Families, Arianne Renan Barzilay Dr.
Labor Regulation As Family Regulation: Decent Work And Decent Families, Arianne Renan Barzilay Dr.
Arianne Renan Barzilay Dr. (J.S.D., New York University School of Law)
It is due time that we understood that regulating the family has been a longstanding goal of labor regulation. This article presents the trajectory of labor regulation as family regulation. It provides a history of the "decent standards" discourse pertaining to wage and hour regulation, and reveals its double meanings: to provide "decent work" and to promote "decent families. " It terms the goal of providing decent standards of work and wages as "productive decency" and the goals pertaining to family decency, proper gender norms, and sexual purity as "repressive decency. " It shows how labor regulation surprisingly began in …
Fda Accelerated Approval Program: Why Brake When You Can Get A Mandate?, Keren Frumkin
Fda Accelerated Approval Program: Why Brake When You Can Get A Mandate?, Keren Frumkin
Keren F. Bisnauth
The FDA approval process is designed to ensure that the drugs released for public consumption are safe and effective. In 1992, the FDA implemented the Accelerated Approval process in order to expedite the approval of drugs to aid patients with life-threatening illnesses, who have little to gain from lengthy approval processes, and who cannot risk worsening health conditions. However, the questionable post-approval practices of drug manufacturers, coupled with the lax FDA enforcement of its required follow-up protocols have raised doubts as to the true value of expedited approval procedures, as well as an influx of drug recalls and lawsuits. In …
