41 Minnesota Journal of Law & Inequality 29 (Winter, 2023) |
Traditionally, the law has created only narrow avenues for children's rights to be recognized and vindicated. The COVID-19 pandemic has changed and reminded adults what it means to be in control, and what rights we should have to live a full, engaged, and productive life. Children in the foster care and juvenile justice systems have such little... |

EFFECTING FREE EXERCISE AND EQUAL PROTECTION |
72 Duke Law Journal 1493 (April, 2023) |
There is an emerging discrepancy in free exercise and equal protection law. For decades, the Supreme Court has maintained that a law's effects on a protected group are usually insufficient to trigger heightened scrutiny under either the Free Exercise or Equal Protection Clause. This longstanding rule has rendered it virtually impossible to... |
