UC
Berkeley School of Law, Friday, Nov. 3 9:00
to 5:30
This
full-day conference will bring together a diverse set of scholars,
practitioners, and policymakers to explore what federalism means now. In this
era of shifting state and federal policy positions, what constraints and
opportunities does federalism present? Can people of different views agree on
rules and principles to guide us going forward?
The
day is divided between a framing panel and two topical panels, one focusing on
federalism and environmental law (climate change, specifically) and the other
focusing on federalism and immigration law. The Chief Justice of California
will deliver the keynote address, and the program concludes with remarks by
Erwin Chemerinsky, Dean of Berkeley Law.
Berkeley
Law presents this event in partnership with the Institute of Governmental
Studies, the Federalist Society, the American Constitution Society, the Bar
Association of San Francisco, and the Alameda County Bar Association. This
event is eligible for 5 hours of MCLE credit, pending State Bar approval.
