With the U.S. presidential election outcome clouded by claims of vote fraud, Republican legislators in several swing states have convened "election integrity" hearings to hear testimony from various witnesses, including members of the legal team. On Nov. 30, 2020, Trump attorney Rudolph Giuliani was among those speaking at an unofficial hearing organized by Arizona state legislators. This episode of the Notable Speeches podcast features Mr. Guiliani's opening statement from that hearing, in which he alleged that vote totals in Arizona and several other states were skewed by a massive, coordinated fraud related to mail-in ballots. He urged Arizona lawmakers to excise their authority, under the U.S. Constitution, to choose which electoral college delegation would vote on behalf of the state later this month when Electoral College members cast their votes for the president and the vice president. During his remarks, Mr. Giuliani mentioned this analysis by law professor John C. Eastman: "The Constitutional Authority of State Legislatures To Choose Electors." The audio of Rudy Giuliani's statement has been slightly abridged for this podcast. Have a comment or question about the Notable Speeches podcast? Email feedback@notablespeeches.com.

Opponents of the effort to add a citizenship question to the 2020 census asked the Supreme Court not to rule against them before new allegations of a political motive can be reviewed.

Since before the Revolution, American legal and political traditions have supported many forms of multiculturalism, through institutions such as freedom of association, religious liberty, parental rights, freedom of speech, private property, federalism, often open immigration policy, and the like.

What can those traditions tell us about today’s multiculturalism debates? -- This panel took place during the 18th Annual Faculty Conference at the Sheraton New York Times Square Hotel in New York, NY on January 9, 2016. -- Featuring: Prof. Mary Anne Case, University of Chicago Law School; Prof. John C. Eastman, Chapman University School of Law; Prof. Richard W. Garnett, University of Notre Dame Law School; and Ms. Heather Mac Donald, Manhattan Institute. Moderator: Prof. Nicholas Quinn Rosenkranz, Georgetown University Law Center.
