Home Stretch at the Supreme Court
On May 1st, Constitutional Accountability Center held its “Home Stretch at the Supreme Court” panel discussion at the National Press Club.
The event featured an all-star lineup, including Dahlia Lithwick of Slate as moderator and panelists Erin Murphy of Bancroft, Marty Lederman of Georgetown Law, and CAC’s own Elizabeth Wydra.
The panel took place the day after the Supreme Court completed oral arguments for the Term, and explored key themes emerging from the Term as well as reviewed decisions that have come down and previewed important decisions still to come, helping kick off the busiest and most consequential part of the Supreme Court’s Term in a thoughtful and engaging way.
