The Safety of Rwanda (Asylum and Immigration) Bill seeks to circumvent the UK Supreme Court's recent judgment holding the Government's Rwanda policy, concerning the removal of certain asylum-seekers, to Rwanda. The Bill contemplates placing the UK in breach of its international obligations, including under the European Convention on Human Rights and the Refugee Convention, while forming part of a policy that relies upon Rwanda's adherence to its own international obligations. The Bill is thus at once hypocritical and parochial, given that domestic legislation cannot free the UK of its legal obligations on the international plane.

In this short recording Professor Mark Elliott explores the legal and constitutional implications of the Bill.

Mark Elliott is Professor of Public Law and Chair of the Faculty of Law at the University of Cambridge, and a Fellow of St Catharine's College, Cambridge.

Becca Mari's Freedom Speak 3/9/24 w/ guest Jay Block

The U.S. Supreme Court hears arguments in Becerra v. San Carlos Apache Tribe and Becerra v. Northern Arapaho Tribe on March 25, 2024.

At issue are self-determination contracts entered into between tribes and the Indian Health Service (IHS). The outcome will further clarify the meaning of "contract support costs" as part of a long-running string of cases heard by the high court in the last 20 years.

The cases are named for Xavier Becerra, the Secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services, the parent agency of the IHS.

The cases have been consolidated by the Supreme Court. Documents can be found at https://sct.narf.org/caseindexes/becerra_v_sancarlos_23-250.html

ABOUT
An urgent and gripping look at the erosion of voting rights and its implications for democracy, told through the stories of 9 Supreme Court decisions—and the next looming case

In The Court v. The Voters, law professor Joshua Douglas takes us behind the scenes of significant cases in voting rights—some surprising and unknown, some familiar—to investigate the historic crossroads that have irrevocably changed our elections and the nation. In crisp and accessible prose, Douglas tells the story of each case, sheds light on the intractable election problems we face as a result, and highlights the unique role the highest court has played in producing a broken electoral system.

Douglas charts infamous cases like:

*Bush v. Gore, which opened the door to many election law claims
Citizens United, which contributed to skewed representation—but perhaps not in the way you might think
*Shelby County v. Holder, which gutted the vital protections of the Voting Rights Act
*Crawford v. Marion County Elections Board, which allowed states to enforce voter ID laws and make it harder for people to vote

The Court v. The Voters powerfully reminds us of the tangible, real-world effects from the Court’s voting rights decisions. While we can—and should—lament the democracy that might have been, Douglas argues that we can—and should—double down in our efforts to protect the right to vote.

The Grants Pass decision could shape how cities address homelessness in ways that may challenge housing advocates, but it also represents the best opportunity we've had in decades to change the narrative on homelessness and build stronger public will for housing.
