Unilateral Burdens And Third-Party Harms: Abortion Conscience Laws As Policy Outliers, Nadia N. Sawicki Jan 2021

Unilateral Burdens And Third-Party Harms: Abortion Conscience Laws As Policy Outliers, Nadia N. Sawicki

Faculty Publications & Other Works

Most conscience laws establish nearly absolute protections for health care providers unwilling to participate in abortion. Providers' rights to refuse-- and relatedly, their immunity from civil liability, employment discrimination, and other adverse consequences--are often unqualified, even in situations where patients are likely to be harmed. These laws impose unilateral burdens on third parties in an effort to protect the rights of conscientious refusers. As such, they are outliers in the universe of federal and state anti-discrimination and religious freedom statutes, all of which strike a more even balance between individual rights and the prevention of harm to third parties.

Burying Our Heads In The Sand: Lack Of Knowledge, Knowledge Avoidance, And The Persistent Problem Of Campus Peer Sexual Violence, Nancy Chi Cantalupo

Loyola University Chicago Law Journal

This Article discusses why two laws that seek to prevent and end sexual violence between students on college campuses, Title IX of the Educational Amendments of 1972 ("Title IX") and the Jeanne Clery Disclosure of Campus Security Policy and Campus Crime Statistics Act ("Clery Act'), are failing to fulfill this goal and how these legal regimes can be improved to reach their objectives. It explicates how Title IX and the Clery Act ignore or exacerbate a series of "information problems" that create incentives for schools to "bury their heads in the sand" with regard to campus peer sexual violence. These …

Shifting Paradigms: From Relapse Prevention To Wellness, Robert E. Longo Lpc, Ncc

Public Interest Law Reporter

Today's youth present greater challenges than during any other time in recent history. The author proposes that "sex offending by youth is a symptom of a greater problem." Young people with sexual behavior problems and sexual aggression behaviors must be looked at from a holistic/ecological perspective as they may be subject to co-morbid diagnosis, traumatic histories that may have neuro-biological impact on the brain and brain development, and learning deficits and disabilities among other concerns. This article will briefly outline the current thinking about assessing youth with sexual behavior problems and youth who are sexually aggressive from both a sexual …
