Asks to Universities/colleges are 3-fold: (1) daily check to see if visas have been revoked (2) provide immigration counsel upon visa revocation, & (3) keep students enrolled. @aaup.bsky.social

Finally out! Maayan Sudai & Ido Katri wrote for YLJ on the irrationality of gender affirming care bans, illuminated most vividly via the pov of intersex people. This is such a powerful intervention because it manages to expose something deep in the ideological apparatus of the state. Must read!

"By legally enshrining support for Israel as a defining characteristic of Jewish identity, the new definition of antisemitism imposes a straitjacket of Zionist identity on American Jews, in effect telling them that certain political positions are incompatible with being authentically Jewish."

Happy to see this in print! Thanks to the dedicated team at UCLA Law Rev. For their amazing work. @itamann.bsky.social
