The Woman's Hour: the Great Fight to Win the Vote by Elaine Weiss |
59 No. 3 Judges' Journal 32 (Summer, 2020) |
When I attended law school in the mid-1970s, it was still a very unusual path for a woman to take. And for several years after graduation, I was reminded of that fact often. Some 40 years later, much has changed for women, especially for the lucky ones admitted to the professions, and yet so much has not. Perhaps shielded by my status as a lawyer,...; Search Snippet: ...Journal Judges' Journal Summer, 2020 Standing Column Book Review the Woman's Hour: the Great Fight to Win the Vote by Elaine... |

65 South Dakota Law Review 1 (2020) |
A frequently under-discussed--yet incredibly relevant--aspect of abortion access is the travel that many women must endure. Some women are lucky enough to live in jurisdictions where local hospitals perform abortions; other women live near abortion clinics. Even women who have local access to abortion services likely face other barriers.

81 Montana Law Review 59 (Winter, 2020) |

In particular, Indian women have become prime victims for non-Indian sexual predators. Rape rates skyrocket when...; Search Snippet: ...Law Review Winter, 2020 Article Tribal Courts, the Violence Against Women Act, and Supplemental Jurisdiction: Expanding Tribal Court Jurisdiction to Improve... |

We Will See That You Are Troubled Right Along: Women and the Politics of the Early Federal Income Tax |
27 Duke Journal of Gender Law & Policy 279 (2019-2020) |
In the early years of the federal income tax, from its enactment in 1913 and for several decades thereafter, most considered income tax policy the exclusive province of men-so much so that when, in 1927, three women testified before the House Ways and Means Committee that the personal exemption rules of the income tax were unfair to single women,...; Search Snippet: ...Article We Will See That You Are Troubled Right Along: Women and the Politics of the Early Federal Income Tax Lawrence... |
