Sanctions And The Emergency Constitutions, Aditya Bamzai Jan 2024

Sanctions And The Emergency Constitutions, Aditya Bamzai

University of Pennsylvania Law Review

The Trading with the Enemy Act of 1917—or the “TWEA”—is the precursor to the modern statutory sanctions framework of the United States. Though significantly amended since its passage—and even replaced in part by a successor statute, the International Emergency Economic Powers Act of 1977—the TWEA’s origins are important both to an understanding of modern sanctions law and to an understanding of the development of American governance. In enacting the TWEA, Congress sought to codify aspects of preexisting prize and trading-with-the-enemy cases. This Article explores the cases that formed the backdrop against which Congress enacted the TWEA, as well as relevant …


Economic Security And The Separation Of Powers, Kathleen Claussen, Timothy Meyer Jan 2024

Economic Security And The Separation Of Powers, Kathleen Claussen, Timothy Meyer

University of Pennsylvania Law Review

The U.S. Constitution grants Congress the power “[t]o regulate Commerce with foreign Nations,” but today the exercise of the foreign commerce power resides primarily with the executive branch. That transfer of control is partly the result of significant delegations of responsibility for managing foreign commerce from Congress to the executive. It is also, however, the result of the securitization of foreign commerce. The executive branch asserts that foreign commerce issues fall under its constitutional powers over foreign affairs, and, thus, that it enjoys authority over foreign commerce that exceeds the scope of congressional delegations.

This Article makes three contributions. First, …


The President's Authority Over Cross-Border Data Flows, Anupam Chander, Paul M. Schwartz Jan 2024

The President's Authority Over Cross-Border Data Flows, Anupam Chander, Paul M. Schwartz

University of Pennsylvania Law Review

This Article reveals a surprising expansion of presidential authority to control goods and services available in the United States because of the information flows that they entail. Such authority is grounded in laws focused on protecting national security, here with respect to foreign surveillance and propaganda. But broad executive powers over our information infrastructure raises significant concerns with respect to core American values of free expression and due process. Worries about unfettered foreign access to data should be coupled with worries about unfettered executive control over our information services and technologies.


(Sub)Delegating National Security Powers, Ashley Deeks Jan 2024

(Sub)Delegating National Security Powers, Ashley Deeks

University of Pennsylvania Law Review

The President sometimes delegates important constitutional and statutory powers to use force or conduct other national security operations. Although these delegations are understudied, there may be reason for concern. Sometimes the President’s national security subdelegations have been unfaithful to Congress’s strictures. Sometimes the delegations are high stakes, as where President Eisenhower delegated to seven military officials the authority to launch nuclear weapons. Presidents sometimes even resist seemingly reasonable statutory limits on the power to delegate decisions that could lead the United States into armed conflict.

National security delegations can be costly. They may diffuse political accountability for high-stakes decisions. The …


T.L.O. Goes Home: Remote Learning And The Future Of School Search Doctrine After Ogletree V. Cleveland State University, William Mcdonald Jan 2024

T.L.O. Goes Home: Remote Learning And The Future Of School Search Doctrine After Ogletree V. Cleveland State University, William Mcdonald

University of Pennsylvania Law Review

The Supreme Court has not addressed the relationship between searches by school administrators and a student’s Fourth Amendment rights in over two decades. Since then, remote learning and other advances in educational technology have changed the meaning of the “school environment.” In a recent federal district court case in Ohio, the court held that a public university’s remote examination policy, which required a student to conduct a scan of her own bedroom before beginning a remote exam, violated the student’s Fourth Amendment rights. This Comment argues that the previous school search Supreme Court cases offer poor tests for this new …


The Organs Of U.S. Foreign Affairs, Jean Galbraith Jan 2024

The Organs Of U.S. Foreign Affairs, Jean Galbraith

University of Pennsylvania Law Review

In United States v. Curtiss-Wright Export Corporation, the Supreme Court famously described the President as having “very delicate, plenary and exclusive power . . . as the sole organ of the federal government in the field of international relations . . . .” Its description of the President as the “sole organ” of foreign affairs does not come from the text of the Constitution, but rather from a speech given by John Marshall in 1800. Yet somehow, and despite much debunking, this notion of the President as the “sole organ” of foreign affairs has become a firm fixture of our …
