Reclaiming Abortion As A Moral—And Religious—Decision, Linda C. Mcclain

Faculty Scholarship

Elizabeth Sepper, Free Exercise of Abortion, 49 BYU L. Rev. 177 (2023).

In 1973, before the Supreme Court decided Roe v. Wade, two members of a group of clergy committed to helping women receive abortion care stated: “every woman must possess the freedom, guaranteed by the U.S. Constitution, to follow her religious conscience in the determination of whether she will or will not bear a child.”1 Religious supporters of abortion access also cited the Establishment Clause: states were adopting, in a religiously diverse nation, a religious view about when life begins and how to value fetal and maternal life. …

The Role Of Storytelling In Bisexual Jurisprudence, Eliot T. Tracz

Pace Law Review

This essay examines the unique challenges faced by bisexual individuals in the legal system and explores how storytelling can serve as an effective tool to combat bisexual erasure and stereotyping in jurisprudence. Despite comprising the largest demographic within the LGBTQ community, bisexual individuals are significantly underrepresented in legal discourse and case law. This essay identifies three primary challenges affecting bisexual legal recognition: erasure (the denial of bisexuality as an orientation), stereotyping (harmful assumptions about bisexual individuals), and interest divergence (conflicting priorities with both heterosexual and homosexual communities). Through detailed case analysis, this essay will demonstrate how these challenges have resulted …

Abolition By Algorithm, Peter N. Salib

Michigan Law Review

In one sense, America’s newest abolitionist movement—advocating the elimination of policing and prison—has been a success. Following the 2020 Black Lives Matter protests, a small group of self-described radicals convinced a wide swath of ordinary liberals to accept a sweeping claim: Mere reforms cannot meaningfully reduce prison and policing’s serious harms. Only elimination can. On the other hand, abolitionists have failed to secure lasting policy change. The difficulty is crime. In 2021, following a nationwide uptick in homicides, liberal support for abolitionist proposals collapsed. Despite being newly “abolition curious,” left-leaning voters consistently rejected concrete abolitionist policies. Faced with the difficult …

Fordham Law Review

Because private companies now control the most prominent communication platforms, the most pressing question in the field of content moderation is how to ensure that the governance of public discourse responds to public values. The prevailing approach, given that the state cannot regulate speech directly, is that state regulation can be substituted with audited self-regulation, broad stakeholder participation, and negotiated rulemaking. In this model, which this Article refers to as the “new governance model for content moderation,” companies include advocates as representatives of the public in their processes to govern online speech. Ideally, they negotiate policy goals and share responsibility …
