Were plaintiffs barking up the wrong tree? Thanks to S. Vladeck—for state con law + civil pro buffs—can a case be returned to state court after removal to federal court if plaintiff removes claims that are the basis for removal? SCOTUS to review 8th Cir. scotusblog.com/case-files/cas…
Greatest hits of substantive due process. Refresh your recollection on the list of rights so protected. politico.com/news/magazine/…
Thought-provoking symposium showed state constitutions are a pivotal locus of civil & political rights in a federalist system. Originalists take note, dual sovereignty means states can interpret their own constitutions based on history, tradition and maybe, persuasive counsel

Miriam Seifter & Michael Kang, both SLoG editors/contributors are panelists. Managing editor is a moderator. Hear about judicial federalism, interpretive methods, democracy in state con law, access to justice, reproductive freedom & more. State constitutionalism is a hot topic!

Consumer owned power failed in a ballot initiative in Maine yesterday, after IOU outspent consumer advocates by a large margin. A blow to energy democracy. mainemorningstar.com/2023/11/07/yea…
What are we concerned about this election day? We are thinking at the precinct level, with concerns that election observers do no more than that, observe. Intimidation and brandishing have no place at the polls. See something, say something.
Along with Swan’s Picks for the week, here are some suggestions from Gregory Shill on how to use lower cost second best interventions to get quick wins on transportation policy. sloglaw.org/post/swan-s-pi…
We have said it before: small town papers are the bulwark of local democracy in many parts of the country. If that’s where you are, read your local paper, support it, and respond to its asks for small dollar donations.
An entire small-town police department in Kansas raided a newspaper's offices and its reporters' homes because the paper got a tip about a well-connected person's DUI kansasreflector.com/2023/08/11/pol
We will depart from our usual institutional objectivity to observe that KBJ’s dissent to today’s SCOTUS decision on affirmative action is on 🔥🔥
