POS 359-The Current Supreme Court Term
In class today, Tuesday 1/19, I distributed one handout, a recent opinion column regarding the power of Congress to mandate the purchase of health insurance. We finished our discussion of Michigan v. Fisher from last week, and began out discussion of U.S. v. Comstock. We discussed the power of states to civilly commit sexual predators, the spending power of Congress, and had gotten up to the scope of the interstate commerce power of Congress. We will continue with the Comstock oral argument on Thursday. The assignment for Thursday 1/21 is to read the handout, and re-read the Comstock oral argument with the added background of today's classroom discussion.
