May 27: Teleconference - ACS Experts Discuss "What's Next" In This Supreme Court Term

As this Supreme Court’s Term comes to an end, experts from the ACS network will discuss “What’s Next?” as part of a weekly conference call program.

As the Supreme Court’s 2013 Term comes to an end, experts from the ACS network will discuss “What’s Next?” as part of a weekly conference call program. The first in this series will take place shortly after the Supreme Court hands down its opinion in Harris v. Quinn, which could come as soon as next Tuesday, May 27. In Harris v. Quinn, the Supreme Court revisits its review of the First Amendment as applied to union dues, examining the right to collective bargaining by low wage homecare workers. What will this case really mean for the right of workers to engage in collective action and form unions? What does Harris represent with respect to union treatment under the First Amendment? And what does it mean in the context of the Court’s work this Term?
To receive call-in information when the decision is handed down and the call is scheduled, RSVP here.
