Tracy Higgins on Immigration Law and the Constitution

Recent headlines about immigration are full of executive orders, court battles, and Supreme Court rulings that can be confusing. Beneath the politics are much older questions about how our constitutional system is supposed to work. Professor Tracy Higgins will focus on three of those questions: who gets to decide immigration policy, what limits does the Constitution place on the government’s power, and what safeguards exist to protect people?

Tracy Higgins, a part-time Arroyo Seco resident, is a professor and director of the Leitner Center for International Law and Justice at Fordham Law School in New York City, where she teaches constitutional law and international human rights.

This event is free and open to the public. Light refreshments will be served.
