The University of Wisconsin Law School spirit is alive and thriving in LA. I was honored to speak at UW Now evert about election law with Rob Yablon of State Democracy Research Initiative and visit our Badger family.

I am thrilled that @SLisaWashington is being recognized for her outstanding scholarship.

I’ve posted a paper, now forthcoming in Legal Theory, to SSRN. It’s about statutory interpretation in the intersystemic context, questioning the idea that, e.g., federal courts ought to use state interpretive methods when interpreting state law. (1/2)
