Their anticrime program, featuring a strengthened criminal code, an empowered FBI, and the first federal war on marijuana, was essential to the expansion of national authority previously stymied on constitutional grounds.

This is an easily digestible argument about what rights we have, what rights Republicans are trying to take away, and how to stop them.

What gives them the right to decide such issues? The judges say it's the Constitution.

Dorothy A. Brown became a tax lawyer to get away from race. As a young black girl growing up in the South Bronx, she’d seen how racism limited the lives of her family and neighbors.

When Brown became a law professor, she set out to understand why.
