We met with DOJ Access to Justice Dir. Rossi today to discuss opportunities to improve the recruitment/retention of public service attorneys, and the many ways their office supports attorneys working to serve vulnerable individuals. Looking forward to future collaboration!
Today, Director Rossi visited the #LegalAid Clinic at the University of Kansas School of Law to learn about how students are using their skills to represent low-income clients under the careful guidance and thoughtful teaching of supervising attorneys. #KULAW

An update on Doc’s 2023-24 budget and theater upgrades:

Wrapping up 5 days that started with an 8:30a Weds chat b/w Dean Chemerinsky and Justice Sotomayor… and included discussions from some of my best legal heroes re Dobbs… I just danced my booty off at @GovLauraKelly and @LtGovToland’s inaugural ball. Not bad so far, 2023!

via @NYTimes This story is remarkably well-researched and compellingly told. And as a legal story, it makes everything we think we know about international custody disputes, adoption, and human trafficking seem inadequate. Read it… nytimes.com/2022/11/10/magaz…

I hope everyone in higher ed is watching what's unfolding today at Emporia State University. They just suspended tenure and fired five professors from the English department.

Thrilled to be hearing from the most thoughtful and engaged reproductive rights scholars today as we look at paths to restoration of reproductive freedoms. This is such an important launch-point for scholarship and activism in this area. Huge day!
