  • Keeping Faith with the Constitution in Changing Times
    Vanderbilt Law School Program in Constitutional Law & Theory and The American Constitution Society Present KEEPING FAITH WITH THE CONSTITUTION IN CHANGING TIMES October 6-7, 2006 Flynn Auditorium Vanderbilt Law School What does it mean to be faithful to the meaning of the Constitution? Can progressive approaches to constitutional interpretation persuasively lay claim to principle, fidelity, adherence to the rule of law and democratic legitimacy? How can these approaches be effectively communicated and made part of the public debate about the Constitution? A diverse group of scholars, lawyers, journalists and judges will address different aspects of this inquiry over two days of panel discussions and roundtable conversations during “Keeping Faith with the Constitution in Changing Times,” a conference sponsored jointly by Vanderbilt Law School’s Program in Constitutional Law & Theory and the American Constitution Society for Law and Policy.

  • How Is the Federal Government Organized with Respect to Influencing Child Hunger?
    How is the Federal Government Organized with Respect to Influencing Child Hunger? Edward M Cooney Executive Director Congressional Hunger Center April 13, 2011 The Congressional Hunger Center gratefully acknowledges the generous support of the ConAgra Foods Foundation for The CHILD Project (Children’s Hunger Initiative on Learning and Development) for which this paper was prepared. Introduction and Background What is the Role of Government in Addressing Child Hunger? Hubert Humphrey once said: “the moral test of government is how it treats those who are in the dawn of life, the children; those who are in the twilight of life, the elderly; and those who are in the shadows of life, the sick, disabled and the handicapped”. This viewpoint captures how Congress and the Executive Branch of government (with a few notable exceptions) have viewed their role in addressing child hunger through the latter part of the 20th and early 21st century. America has a rich and bipartisan tradition of addressing the needs of its poor and hungry people. Perhaps President Nixon captured the essence of the paradox of hunger existing in a nation of great wealth and compassion when he said: “We don’t know just how many Americans are actually hungry and how many suffer from malnutrition, who eats enough and who doesn’t eat the right things. But we know that there are too many Americans in both categories. We can argue the extent of hunger. But hunger exists. We can argue its severity, but malnutrition exists! The plain fact is that a great many Americans are not eating well enough to sustain health” (1969 White House Conference on Food, Nutrition, and Health).

  • April 1, 2011 the Honorable Harry Reid Majority Leader United States
    April 1, 2011 The Honorable Harry Reid Majority Leader United States Senate S-221, Capitol Building Washington, DC 20510-0001 RE: Oppose the Kline-Foxx Amendment to the FY 2011 Continuing Resolution Dear Leader Reid: Thank you for your leadership in making college affordable for more students, especially low- income students. Your past efforts to increase the maximum Pell grant amount, strengthen the federal student loan program, and enhance educational opportunities for members of the military and veterans have gone a long way to ensuring access to post-secondary education for all students. These steps are essential to reach the President’s goal of having the highest college graduation rate in the world by 2020. But, we do nothing for students or our nation if we just guarantee access to debt without a serious opportunity for college completion. The Department of Education’s proposed gainful employment regulation recognizes that some current career education programs are so toxic that they doom students to a lifetime of debt burden and waste millions of precious taxpayer dollars. The Kline-Foxx amendment to H.R. 1 would prohibit the Department of Education from doing the minimum needed to protect students and taxpayers from the most toxic choices and would allow the continued flow of federal dollars into programs that have been, at best, ineffective and, at worst, routinely leaving students much worse off than when they enrolled. Specifically, the amendment would eliminate funding to: • Enforce existing regulations that ensure students receive the kind of basic consumer information they need to make an informed choice about a career education program; and • Finalize or implement any gainful employment regulation to protect students and taxpayers from wasteful career education programs at any type of college.
