In this Rapid Response episode, Hunter Mallinger, law student and member of ASU's Indian Legal Program, is joined by Professor Patty Ferguson-Bohnee, Director of the Indian Legal Clinic and Faculty Director of the Indian Legal Program at ASU. They discuss the legal and civil rights implications of Executive Order 14160, which targets birthright citizenship, and its impact on Native Americans. The conversation explores the history and legal foundations of Native American citizenship, dispels misconceptions, and highlights current threats from immigration enforcement, offering valuable insights for affected Native Americans, their communities, advocates, and legal professionals.
CRSJ, in collaboration with the DEI Center and its entities, the Center for Public Interest Law and its entities, the Young Lawyers Division, and other Section Divisions and Forums, is launching a new rapid-response project that will provide videos, resources, and other information breaking down key legal developments by explaining specific actions the government is taking, the legality of these actions, its impact on civil rights and daily life, and steps attorneys and advocates can take to protect our communities.
