And then you should read this great @mjschlanger.bsky.social piece from a decade ago that develops similar themes: repository.law.umich.edu/articles/1410/

Professors @sbagen.bsky.social and @mjschlanger.bsky.social react to the SCOTUS ruling in US v. Skrmetti michigan.law.umich.edu/news/bagenst...

Really happy to share this new piece, where I talk about the need for individualization and accommodation, in and out of prison, and for people with and without disabilities (though the need to act is particularly urgent behind bars). scholars.law.unlv.edu/nlj/vol25/is... Feedback welcome!

Nice piece (with some quotes from me and others) on national injunctions and birthright citizenship and tomorrow's SCOTUS argument about them both. www.huffpost.com/entry/birthr....

Hey, everyone, read @mjschlanger.bsky.social 's (sadly timely) new piece on how to sue the federal government for violating disability discrimination law. papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers....

New! my pre-publication piece, "Challenging Federal Government Impunity: The Case of Disability Law" papers.ssrn.com/abstract=522.... Here's the TLDR: DOJ sometimes argues that courts can't enforce disability discrimination laws against federal agencies. That's wrong; this piece shows why.

DHS raids civil rights budget to run ads praising our dear leader. www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol.... Because of course they did.

Hard as it is to focus on any particular shard of the collapse of the federal government, here’s a great piece by my former boss on the illegal dismantling of our former office, the DHS Office for Civil Rights and Civil Liberties. https://democracyjournal.org/arguments/whats-behind-dhss-abuses/

An important OpEd by @sbagen.bsky.social .

Mine, in Democracy Journal: Trump has dissolved DHS's civil rights office, for all the very bad reasons you'd expect. democracyjournal.org/arguments/wh...

A stunning compilation. forward.com/fast-forward...

That's what @mjschlanger.bsky.social has been going around saying!

You know, that @mjschlanger.bsky.social , who's quoted in this piece, is really smart. "Incredible overreach" indeed. www.nytimes.com/2025/03/10/o...

Mahmoud Khalil's detention and green card revocation are really frightening. Thanks to @michellegoldberg.bsky.social for her piece (and for quoting me in it). www.nytimes.com/2025/03/10/o...

I see some suggestions, in the reporting regarding the OMB impoundment order, that a mere delay in spending appropriated funds is legal. But that's not really true. The delay OMB has ordered specifically contradicts the Impoundment Control Act. A thread.

New from the Civil Rights Litigation Clearinghouse -- we're going to track and post about civil rights lawsuits against the Trump Administration. Check it out! clearinghouse.net/post/1175/
