  • August 10, 2005 the Honorable Arlen Specter the Honorable Patrick J
    August 10, 2005 The Honorable Arlen Specter The Honorable Patrick J. Leahy Committee on the Judiciary United States Senate Washington, DC 20510 Dear Chairman Specter and Senator Leahy: I am writing to express to you my concern about suggestions that one of John Roberts’ Supreme Court arguments reflects an ideology that leads him “to excuse violence against other Americans.” This assertion is based upon the role that Roberts played as Deputy Solicitor General in 1991 and 1992 in briefing and arguing on behalf of the United States in Bray v. Alexandria Clinic. Such a suggestion is unfair and unwarranted. The question in Bray was whether protests which blocked access to reproductive health clinics and which all agreed violated state civil and criminal trespass laws also violated a provision of the federal Ku Klux Klan Act of 1871. In his briefing and argument before the Supreme Court on behalf of the United States, Roberts argued that a particular provision of the 1871 Act in question only provided remedies against acts directed at a class of people defined by a class characteristic and that did not apply to those motivated by opposition to abortion. I disagreed with the position Roberts argued. But the question was a complex one, prior Supreme Court precedents had taken a narrow view of the provision, and in the end six Justices agreed with Roberts’ basic argument. (In response to Bray, Congress adopted new legislation – the Freedom of Access to Clinics Act – which, unlike the 1871 law, directly addressed the problem of clinic access and provided a more effective cause of action than would have been possible under the 19th Century law interpreted in Bray.) I also fear that some people will be left with the impression that Roberts is somehow associated with clinic bombers.

    1 Climate change politics in the United States From Rio to Johannesburg Pierre Lepetit* One year ago international negotiations on climate change were expected to cease after the decision of President Bush to reject the Kyoto Protocol as “fatally flawed”. Despite the Bush administration's position, the rest of the world agreed at the sixth UNFCCC1 Conference of the Parties (COP6) in Bonn to push ahead without the United States, and a number of decisions were adopted at COP7 in Marrakech in November 2001. It allows for an imminent ratification of the Kyoto protocol before the Johannesburg summit in spite of Canada’s understandable reluctance.. Nevertheless the goal set by the Convention of Climate Change will not be reached unless the United States participates fully in the international effort. Without the United States, and because the rules have been relaxed in the Bonn and Marrakech bargaining, the Kyoto protocol will have only a modest impact on worldwide emissions. As Ray Kopp2 has shown, the amount of carbon dioxide that some countries would have to cut is approximately equal to the amount by which other countries – mostly Russia - would be allowed to increase. Moreover, without the United States there is little chance to enlarge the participation in the Kyoto mechanism during the second commitment period. “Countries know that pursuing virtuous global warming policies make little sense if no one follows suit. Any individual reduction on their part will be swamped by emissions from others. Indeed going first could be economically lethal, driving up a country’s production costs and pushing jobs abroad.
