Make plans to join The Federalist Society on Thursday, February 17th, at 12:15 p.m.-1:15 p.m. in Room 151 for debate, discussion, and FREE CHIPOTLE.
Ilya Shapiro, Senior Fellow in Constitutional Studies at the CATO Institute and Editor-in-Chief of the CATO Supreme Court Review, will debate Akron’s own C. Blake McDowell, Jr. Professor of Law, Wilson Huhn. The debate will focus on the constitutional issues surrounding the individual healthcare mandate of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act.
It seems inevitable the Supreme Court will rule on the constitutionality of The Minimum Essential Coverage Provision in the not too distant future. Both Mr. Shapiro and Professor Huhn are engaging speakers well-versed on the issues in question. Don’t miss this!
PS: And don’t forget the FREE CHIPOTLE!
