Colby* This Article approaches the originalism debate from a new angle— through the lens of the recently defeated Federal Marriage Amendment. There was profound and very public disagreement about the meaning of the FMA—in particular about the effect that it would have had on civil unions. The inescapable conclusion is that there was no original public meaning of the FMA with respect to the civil unions question. This suggests that often the problem with originalism is not just that the original public meaning of centuries-old provisions of the Constitution is hard to find (especially by judges untrained in history). The problem is frequently much more funda- mental, and much more fatal; it is that there was no original public mean- ing to begin with.

  • Sen. Sessions Belatedly Supplements His Senate Judiciary Questionnaire— but Dozens of Items Still Missing and Records for Two Decades Still Largely Absent
    Sen. Sessions Belatedly Supplements His Senate Judiciary Questionnaire— But Dozens of Items Still Missing and Records for Two Decades Still Largely Absent On Friday night, December 23—two weeks after Senator Sessions submitted his Senate Judiciary Questionnaire (SJQ) for his nomination to be Attorney General—he submitted a supplement with hundreds of new entries. This supplement confirms our initial report, on December 14, which demonstrated that his SJQ was “shockingly incomplete.” Indeed, many of his additional entries are based on the findings in our report. However, Senator Sessions’ SJQ remains astonishingly deficient, with two decades of his career still largely missing and dozens of more recent items still omitted—including an interview just last month. Especially as Senator Sessions continues to refuse to take the confirmation process seriously, Judiciary Committee Chair Chuck Grassley’s double standard in scheduling this hearing is all the more appalling. As Judiciary Committee Chair, Senator Chuck Grassley has scheduled consideration of two Attorney General nominations: Loretta Lynch Jeff Sessions Questionnaire submitted: Dec. 1, 2014 Dec. 9, 2016 Grassley schedules hearing: Jan. 16, 2015 (46 days later) Dec. 9, 2016 (same day) Grassley holds hearings: Jan. 28-29, 2015 (58 days later) Jan. 10-11, 2017 (32 days later) The Senate had confirmed Lynch twice, including just five years before her nomination to become Attorney General. The Senate’s last consideration of Senator Sessions as a nominee was to reject him, 30 years ago. If anything, the timeline to consider Senator Sessions’ nomination should be twice as long—not half as long—as it was for Lynch’s nomination.

I would like to thank my third reader, Dr. Mary Dalton, who not only agreed to be on my committee while she was on leave but provided a crucial perspective on journalistic credibility that greatly influenced the way I approached my analysis.

I would like to thank my second reader, Dr. Mollie Canzona, for guiding me through a qualitative process that was entirely new to me but became the best method for completing my analysis. She was always available when I had questions, provided essential ideas and critiques and showed compassion in some of my more anxiety-ridden moments.

  • The Coalition Against S. 744 ______
    The Coalition against S. 744 _____________________________________________ The Wrong Way to Reform Immigration An open letter on the Senate immigration bill We write to express our serious concerns regarding the Gang of Eight's immigration bill, S. 744. We oppose this bill and urge you to vote against it when it comes to the Senate floor. No matter how well-intentioned, the Schumer-Rubio bill suffers from fundamental design flaws that make it unsalvageable. Many of us support various parts of the legislation, but the overall package is so unsatisfactory that the Senate would do better to start over from scratch. We have a variety of concerns; some of us share only one, others share all. Among these concerns are that the bill: • Is bloated and unwieldy along the lines of Obamacare or Dodd-Frank; • Cedes excessive control over immigration law to an administration that has repeatedly proven itself to be untrustworthy, even duplicitous; • Legalizes millions of illegal immigrants before securing the borders, thus ensuring future illegal immigration; • Rewards law breakers and punishes law enforcement, undermining the rule of law; • Hurts American job-seekers, especially those with less education; • Threatens to bankrupt our already strained entitlement system; • Expands government by creating new bureaucracies, authorizing new spending, and calling for endless regulations; • Contains dangerous loopholes that threaten national security; • Is shot through with earmarks for politically connected interest groups; • Overwhelms our immigration bureaucracy, guaranteeing widespread fraud. Reforming our immigration system is an important priority. But S.744 is such a defective measure that it would do more harm than good. We urge you to vote against it and against any cloture vote to bring up the bill.

    FRAMING ISLAM AS A THREAT The Use of Islam by Some U.S. Conservatives as a Platform for Cultural Politics in the Decade after 9/11 David Douglas Belt A dissertation submitted to the faculty of Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY In Planning, Governance & Globalization Gerard Toal (Chair) Timothy W. Luke Joel Peters Ariel I. Ahram September 19, 2014 Alexandria, Virginia Keywords cultural politics, discourse, identity politics, Islamophobia, security writing Copyright 2014 by David D. Belt FRAMING ISLAM AS A THREAT The Use of Islam by Some U.S. Conservatives as a Platform for Cultural Politics in the Decade after 9/11 David Douglas Belt ABSTRACT Why, in the aftermath of 9/11, did a segment of U.S. security experts, political elite, media and other institutions classify not just al-Qaeda but the entire religion of Islam as a security threat, thereby countering the prevailing professional consensus and White House policy that maintained a distinction between terrorism and Islam? Why did this oppositional threat narrative on Islam expand and even degenerate into warning about the “Islamization” of America by its tiny population of Muslim-Americans—a perceived threat sufficiently convincing that legislators in two dozen states introduced bills to prevent the spread of Islamic law, or sharia, and a Republican Presidential front-runner exclaimed, “I believe Shariah is a mortal threat to the survival of freedom in the United States and in the world as we know it”? This dissertation takes these puzzles as its object of inquiry.
