POS 359--The Current Supreme Court Term
In class today, Thursday, 2/4, we began by going over some misconceptions about the Citizens United case. We then discussed the meaning of the "strict scrutiny" test that Justice Kennedy applied to the campaign finance law, and used the Bellotti case to illustrate how strict scrutiny works. Next week I will go over some other recent decisions of the Court. The assignment for Tuesday is to continue working on Assignment #1, which is due a week from today, Thursday 2/11.
