Join me for a screening of Fourteen Section Two
Section Two of the 14th Amendment says states that suppress voting rights can lose representation in Congress. But for over 150 years, it hasn’t been enforced. As interest in lesser known sections of the 14th Amendment grows, ACS is offering the opportunity to explore the history of this nearly forgotten provision and to take a look at a lawsuit that attempts to revive it.
Join us as Todd Drezner, Director of PBS film Fourteen Section Two, introduces a segment of his upcoming release. In it, he follows former DOJ attorney Jared Pettinato on his quest to protect voters’ rights through Citizens for Constitutional Integrity v. Census Bureau. We'll also hear from Gerard Magliocca, the Samuel R. Rosen Professor at the Indiana University Robert H. McKinney School of Law, one of the nation’s leading experts on the Fourteenth Amendment and the author of five books on constitutional law.
