EXPLORING THE LIMITS OF EXECUTIVE CIVIL RIGHTS POLICYMAKING STEPHEN PLASS* Racial equality for blacks remains a minefield issue for American presidents. Any position a president takes is bound to alienate someone. As a result, even a well-meaning president such as Bill Clinton has had to tread very carefully when addressing this topic.1 Popular attitudes shaped by the powerful continue to dictate the extent to which presidents are able to confront continuing racial discrimination and its legacy of inequality in American life.2 Although many laws ordaining racial equality have been written, discrimination remains a normal part of life in America. This reality makes the President’s role in this area almost as difficult

  • Association of American Law Schools Section on Labor Relations and Employment Law: Tributes Honoring Senior Law Professors
    ASSOCIATION OF AMERICAN LAW SCHOOLS SECTION ON LABOR RELATIONS AND EMPLOYMENT LAW: TRIBUTES HONORING SENIOR LAW PROFESSORS A TRIBUTE HONORING JAMES E. JONES, JR.* Professor Vicki Schultz**: Good morning. I'm Vicki Schultz, the 2004 Chair of the Labor and Employment Law Section of the Association of American Law Schools. Last year, my predecessor, Professor Roberto Corrada, initiated a practice of having our section honor someone who has made a significant contribution to our field. This morning, it is my great pleasure to be able to honor my dear friend and colleague James E. Jones, Jr., the Nathan P. Feinsinger Professor of Labor Law, Emeritus at the University of Wisconsin Law School and the School of Labor and Industrial Relations. There is so much to say about this brilliant and big-hearted man; I can't even begin to cover his many achievements in the time available. So, let me simply touch on a few of his most significant contributions to the law, the field, and the university he loves so much, and to his students and colleagues, who, in turn, love him so much. I. DEVELOPING EARLY AFFIRMATIVE ACTION LAW Before he joined the legal academy, Professor Jones had already had a significant career in the United States Department of Labor. He began as a legislative attorney, progressed to Counsel for Labor Relations, Director of the Office of Labor Management Policy Development, and then became Associate Solicitor, Division of Labor Relations and Civil Rights in the Office of the Solicitor of Labor. During that phase of his career, Professor Jones played an important role in developing and defending the emerging concept of affirmative action in employment.

  • The Surprisingly Contentious History of Executive Orders | Huffpost  
    4/2/2020 The Surprisingly Contentious History Of Executive Orders | HuffPost Ben Feuer, Contributor Chairman, California Appellate Law Group The Surprisingly Contentious History Of Executive Orders Cries of “unprecedented” executive action on both sides are more histrionic than historical. 02/02/2017 04:59 am ET | Updated Feb 03, 2017 Despite howls that Presidents Trump and Obama both issued “unprecedented” executive orders, presidents have embraced executive actions to enact controversial policies since the dawn of the Republic. https://www.huffpost.com/entry/the-surprisingly-contentious-history-of-executive-orders_b_58914580e4b04c35d583546e 1/8 4/2/2020 The Surprisingly Contentious History Of Executive Orders | HuffPost NICHOLAS KAMM/AFP/GETTY IMAGES Recently, USA Today savaged President Trump’s executive orders since taking office, from encouraging Keystone XL approval to altering immigration policy, as an “unprecedented blizzard.” In 2014, the Washington Post raked President Obama for his Deferred Action immigration directives, more commonly called DACA and DAPA, deeming them “unprecedented” and “sweeping,” while Ted Cruz published an op-ed in the Wall Street Journal lashing Obama’s “imperial” executive order hiking the minimum wage for federal contractors as one with “no precedent.” A 2009 piece in Mother Jones lamented a President George W. Bush executive order allowing former-presidents and their families to block the release of presidential records as — you guessed it — “unprecedented.” With all the talk of precedent, you might think executive orders historically did little more than set the White House lawn watering schedule. But the reality is that presidents have long employed executive actions to accomplish strikingly controversial objectives without congressional approval.

  • Affirmative Action Vs Diversity
    Affirmative Action vs. Diversity - By Shirley J. Wilcher The Quest for Opportunity in a 21st Century World There has been much debate about affirmative action and diversity since President John F. Kennedy signed Executive Order 10925 in 1961. 2 As we approach the 50th Anniversary of the Order it is timely to reflect upon affirmative action and the difference between this concept and the more recent theory and practice of “diversity.” While the terms are often used interchangeably, there are fundamental differences between the two, but they are inextricably linked. In its Final Report to President Eisenhower, the President's Committee on Government Contracts, headed by vice president Richard Nixon, concluded: Overt discrimination, in the sense that an employer actually refuses to hire solely because of race, religion, color, or national origin is not as prevalent as is generally believed. To a greater degree, the indifference of employers to establishing a positive policy of nondiscrimination hinders qualified applicants and employees from being hired and promoted on the basis of equality .3 President Kennedy incorporated the concept of “affirmative action” into Executive Order 10925, which he issued in 1961. Executive Order 10925 imposed on all covered contractors a general obligation requiring positive steps designed to overcome obstacles to equal employment opportunity. In 1965, President Lyndon Baines Johnson signed Executive Order 11246, which gave the Secretary of Labor responsibility for administration and enforcement of the Order mandating that contractors not discriminate against any employees or qualified applicants because of race, color, religion, sex or national origin. Contractors were to take affirmative action to ensure nondiscrimination in employment, upgrading, demotion or transfer, recruitment or recruitment advertising, layoff or termination, rates of pay or other forms of compensation, and selection for training, including apprenticeship.

Appeal from the United States District Court for the District of Hawaii Derrick Kahala Watson, District Judge, Presiding Argued and Submitted December 6, 2017 Seattle, Washington Before: Michael Daly Hawkins, Ronald M. Gould, and Richard A. Paez, Circuit Judges. PER CURIAM: For the third time, we are called upon to assess the legality of the President’s efforts to bar over 150 million nationals of six Muslim-majority countries from entering the United States or being issued immigrant visas that they would ordinarily be qualified to receive. To do so, we must consider the statutory and constitutional limits of the President’s power to curtail entry of foreign nationals in this appeal of the district court’s order preliminarily enjoining portions of § 2 of Proclamation 9645 entitled “Enhancing Vetting Capabilities and Processes for Detecting Attempted Entry Into the United States by Terrorists or Other Public- Safety Threats” (the “Proclamation”). The Proclamation, like its predecessor executive orders, relies on the premise that the Immigration and Nationality Act (“INA”) vested the President with broad powers to regulate the entry of aliens.
