Restrictions on reproductive health care have significant consequences for immigrants. In the wake of the rights-stripping Dobbs decision, immigrants without documentation are not able to travel in many parts of the country to access abortion due to immigration checkpoints.

Furthermore, people in immigration custody have faced reproductive coercion, including forced sterilization, and shackling while pregnant, despite policy prohibiting such treatment. Come learn from Brigitte Amiri, the Deputy Director of the ACLU Reproductive Freedom Project, and Maura Finn, Senior Lead Attorney with the Southern Poverty Law Center's Southeast Immigrant Freedom Initiative, about what can be done to ensure reproductive rights for immigrants.

The decision to pursue law firm/private sector employment for 2L summer and beyond is significant for GPI-focused 1Ls.

Puerto Rico remains stuck in a quasi-colonial relationship with the U.S. that many islanders outspokenly condemn. For decades, Constitutional Law has been used to define and uphold this relationship. The Insular Cases, notably, made it so that only certain fundamental Constitutional rights are guaranteed to Puerto Rico while referring to the affected people as "alien races" and "savage tribes." This means that there are millions of American citizens without access to basic Constitutional rights. This panel of Puerto Rican Constitutional Law experts will delineate the history of constitutional law that carved out protections for colonialism; the effects that has had on the island; and the potential future pathways for Puerto Rico.
