SUMMARY:2019 CONSTITUTION DAY | Kansas in the U.S. Supreme Court
DESCRIPTION:The U.S. Supreme Court has granted review to three separate cases involving the state of Kansas in 2019\, which it will hear in October and November. Join Stephen McAllister\, U.S. attorney for the District of Kansas\, and special guests as they explore the constitutional issues raised in each of three cases:\nKansas v. Garcia: whether federal immigration laws preempt Kansas identity theft criminal laws.\nKahler v.

Glover: in a case originating in Lawrence\, whether it is reasonable for a law enforcement officer to assume the driver of the vehicle is its registered owner\, as a general matter.\nGuests panelists will include: \nToby Crouse\, Kansas Solicitor General\nSarah E. Harrington\, Goldstein & Russell\, P.C. and counsel for the defense\, Kansas v. Glover\nTobias S. Loss-Eaton\, Sidley Austin LLP and principal drafter of petition for certiorari\, Kahler v. Kansas\nDerek Schmidt\, Kansas Attorney General

SUMMARY:Votes for Women: Suffrage and the 19th Amendment Centennial
DESCRIPTION:One hundred years have not yet passed since the ratification of the 19th Amendment\, which granted many — but not all — U.S. women the right to vote. Passed by the House and Senate in 1919 and reaching the threshold to become law of the land in 1920\, it enfranchised 26 million women voters. In this 100th-anniversary kickoff event\, a panel featuring professors Jinx Broussard (Louisiana State University)\, Teri Finneman (KU) and Candi Carter Olson (Utah State University) will examine the women’s suffrage movement and the legacy and limitations of this transformative amendment. This program is co-sponsored by the League of Women Voters of Kansas and its Centennial Celebration Committee.
