In the name of equality, some state and local governments seem to have implemented race-and-gender-based legal quotas in practice if not in name.

Gast.In CFER v. Alameda County, plaintiffs are Oakland-area taxpayers who allege that county set-asides for Minority Business Enterprises violate federal and California constitutional prohibitions on racial discrimination.Meanwhile, in Raak Law v. Gast, the plaintiffs are prospective candidates for the Iowa Judicial Nominating Commission. They contend Iowa law establishes a gender quota by staggering the two commissioners' elections and requiring that of the two commissioners from each district, one be female and the other be male.Listen for a Litigation Update on these two fascinating cases, as Wen Fa reviews the facts and law of these cases, as well as the status of each case.Featuring:Wen Fa, Senior Attorney, Pacific Legal Foundation[Moderator] Dan Morenhoff, Executive Director, Equal Voting Rights InstituteVisit our website – www.RegProject.org – to learn more, view all of our content, and connect with us on social media.

Dom Giordano, WPHT host and former teacher, has dedicated much of his daily show toward parents who are taking it into their own hands to push back against school boards that have a negative impact on their children. This has culminated in a weekly podcast on education, Readin', Writin', and Reason, which has allowed wonderful relationships to develop between Giordano, educators, and parents throughout the country who are speaking out against overbearing school boards. First, Giordano welcomes back Wen Fa, an attorney with Pacific Legal Foundation and an expert on the discrimination that Asian-Americans face in the university admissions process, to discuss the Supreme Court cases involving Harvard and UNC determining whether or not the process is unfair. First, Giordano asks for some clarification on terms used in the lawsuit and reporting that aren't in the common lexicon, asking about the term ‘decile' and how it applies to the lawsuit. Wen provides a contextual history to the lawsuit, telling of past Supreme Court decisions concerning affirmative action, which is largely at stake in the argument. Then, Todd Shepherd, investigative journalist for Broad and Liberty, joins the Dom Giordano Program to discuss the story centered around former St. Joe's professor Gregory Manco who was released from St. Joes after allegedly racist social media posts. First, Shepherd reveals details he's unearthed about the accuser who first brought the anonymous tweets to university officials, explaining that there looks to be a long-term grudge held against the professor by the student whistleblower due to a bad grade that the student received. In the Broad and Liberty story, Shepherd revealed that Manco has now filed a federal lawsuit against the university and the former student over free speech, alleging defamation, civil conspiracy, and other charges. Shepherd tells what he believes is at stake in the lawsuit, and tells what will have to happen for Gregory Manco to win the lawsuit. And attorney Michael Taylor joins the Dom Giordano Program to discuss a situation playing out in the Downingtown Area School District featuring an election dispute. During the recent election, Margie Miller won a seat on the school board by a four vote margin. This past week, a lawyer for her competition disputed the election results, arguing that six ballots that have been disputed should win the competitor the election. Taylor takes us through the situation, telling the results of the election, and Giordano frames the situation in a larger scope, telling of the implications a decision on this election would have on mail-in ballots in elections state-wide.

The Supreme Court announced that it will hear a First Amendment challenge to Minnesota’s sweeping, speech-stifling restrictions on what can be worn while voting. Represented free of charge by Pacific Legal Foundation, concerned residents like Andy Cilek are targeting the state’s unconstitutional prohibition on wearing anything to the polls that might be interpreted as even slightly ideological, even if it has no relation to any candidate, ballot measure, or political party. The case challenges a Minnesota law that forbids voters from wearing any “political badge, political button, or other political insignia.” Officials have interpreted this open-ended language to cover messages that merely express a general social or philosophical outlook. As the government itself noted at oral argument, Minnesota’s broad political apparel ban encompasses any shirt with the logo of the Chamber of Commerce or the AFL-CIO. In this week's episode of PLF's Courting Liberty podcast, hear from case attorney Wen Fa and client Andy Cilek as they break down the importance and gravity of their fight for free speech.
