    On-line Virginia Bulletin Virginia Society Sons of the American Revolution __________________________________________________________________ 2013-14 Volume XXXVII No. 4 VASSAR Honors St. George Tucker The Sons of the American Revolution (S.A.R.), the Daughters of the American Revolution (D.A.R.), and the Children of the American Revolution (C.A.R.) conducted a joint ceremony to dedicate a grave marker honoring St. George Tucker on Saturday, November 2, 2013, at the Cabell Family Cemetery at Edgewood, Wingina, Virginia. VASSAR President Kent S. Webber presided, and Virginia DAR President Virginia Sebastian Storage and Virginia C.A.R. President Chas Leiss gave remarks as well. Over 70 people were in attendance, including two descendants of St. George Tucker. The event also commemorated a restoration of the grave site, which was funded by the VASSAR Knight/Patty Memorial Trust Fund. Several bricks had come loose over the years, endangering the full-length slab and its Latin inscription. St. George Tucker was born into a prominent family on Bermuda on July 10, 1752, but came to Williamsburg, Vir- ginia, as a young man to pursue a career in the law. As the tensions between the colonies and Great Britain rose, he and his brother, Dr. Thomas Tudor Tucker of Charleston, South Carolina, separately informed patriot leaders that the - continued on page 5 Virginia Society, Sons of the American Revolution 2013-2014 Officers Kent S.

  • Lobbying and the Petition Clause
    Stanford Law Review Volume 68 May 2016 ARTICLE Lobbying and the Petition Clause Maggie McKinley* Abstract. Contrary to popular opinion, the Supreme Court has not yet resolved whether lobbying is constitutionally protected. Belying this fact, courts, Congress, and scholars mistakenly assume that lobbying is protected under the Petition Clause. Because scholars have shared the mistaken assumption that the Petition Clause protects the practice of “lobbying,” no research to date has looked closely at the Petition Clause doctrine and the history of petitioning in relation to lobbying. In a recent opinion addressing petitioning in another context, the Supreme Court unearthed the long history behind the right to petition and argued for the importance of this history for future interpretation of the Petition Clause. Following the Supreme Court’s direction, this Article examines the implications of the history of petitioning for lobbying and, drawing from recent empirical research on lobbying, argues that the way Congress engages with the public through our current lobbying system actually violates the right to petition. At the Founding, and for much of this Nation’s history, the right to petition protected a formal, transparent platform for individual—and, in particular, minority—voices to participate in the lawmaking process. Without regard to the number of signers or the political power of the petitioner, petitions received equal process and consideration. This platform allowed both the enfranchised and unenfranchised to gain access to lawmakers on equal footing. Women, African Americans, and Native Americans all engaged in petitioning activity, and Congress attended to each equally. Moving beyond ahistorical, decontextualized interpretations of the Petition Clause, this Article posits that our current lobbying system—wherein access and procedure are * (Fond du Lac Band, Lake Superior Ojibwe) Climenko Fellow and Lecturer on Law, Harvard Law School.

  • A Historical Interpretation of the Eleventh Amendment: a Narrow Construction of an Affirmative Grant of Jurisdiction Rather Than a Prohibition Against Jurisdiction
    A Historical Interpretation of the Eleventh Amendment: A Narrow Construction of an Affirmative Grant of Jurisdiction Rather than a Prohibition Against Jurisdiction William A. Fletcher* INTRODUCTION The eleventh amendment is one of the Constitution's most baf- fling provisions and, for its importance, one of the least analyzed. Its full text provides, The Judicial power of the United States shall not be construed to extend to any suit in law or equity, commenced or prosecuted against one of the United States by Citizens of another State, or by Citizens or Subjects of any foreign state. In a number of decisions, the Supreme Court has treated the amend- ment as prohibiting federal courts from taking jurisdiction over suits brought in federal court against a state by private citizens.2 The * Acting Professor of Law, Boalt Hall School of Law, University of California, Berke- ley.

    IN THE SUPREME COURT OF TENNESSEE AT NASHVILLE IN RE: JOHN JAY HOOKER No. M2009-01498-SC-OT-CV - Filed February 25, 2011 BPR Docket No. 2005P-1519-5-SG For Publication ORDER John Jay Hooker has filed a motion requesting this Court (1) to set aside its June 21, 2010 order directing the Clerk of the Appellate Courts to decline to accept any of his further filings in this case and (2) to rescind its January 7, 2010 order enforcing the October 20, 2008 order of the Chancery Court for Davidson County suspending his license to practice law for thirty days.1 Mr. Hooker has also requested that all the members of the Court recuse themselves from this proceeding because they “are prejudiced against him as a consequence of a contentious political dispute before the legislature . regarding the [c]onstitutionality of the [r]etention [e]lection [s]tatute.” In order to address Mr. Hooker’s first two requests, the Court must first address his renewed insistence that all the members of this Court are disqualified from any proceedings involving his law license. I. THE HISTORY OF THE PROCEEDINGS For nearly two decades, Mr. Hooker has filed a series of lawsuits in the federal and state courts challenging the financing of elections by officials running for local, state, and federal office. When these suits met with no success in the state trial and appellate courts, Mr. Hooker began challenging the authority of the state appellate courts to hear and decide his claims because he believed that the judges were not validly elected.

Recent years also have seen the marking of the 50th anniversary of both the Civil Rights Act of 1964, which outlawed discrimination in public accommodations and employment, and Freedom Summer, when black and white college students journeyed to Mississippi to wage voting rights campaigns there. Yet, in Memphis, Tennessee, African Americans historically faced few barriers to voting. While black southerners elsewhere were killed and harassed for trying to exert their right to vote, black Memphians could vote and used that right as a tool to advance civil rights. Throughout the 1900s, they held the balance of power in elections, ran black candidates for political office, and engaged in voter registration campaigns. Black Memphians in 1964 elected the first black state legislator in Tennessee since the late nineteenth century.

Adherents to the doctrine question whether Congress has developed a practice of improperly delegating to administrative agencies the legislative power that Congress alone must exercise under the Vesting Clause of Article I of the Con- stitution. Many scholars have debated the extent of the historical or textual basis for the doctrine. Instead, this Article examines interactions between exec- utive and legislative actors during the first congressional debates on the Im- post, Tonnage, Registration, and Collection of Duties Acts. In addition to revealing Congress’s central role early on, this story shows the relevance of state and congressional district interests to the legislative agreements concern- ing customs laws. The rich depth of these varied interests suggests that nondelegation limitations might not be inherent in the Vesting Clause alone, but may be innate to the federal government’s tripartite and federalist struc- tural design itself. The Constitution carefully provided significant protection for state inter- ests through diverse representation schemes in the House and the Senate. Be- yond the textual limitation of exclusive vesting of the legislative power in Congress, separation of powers principles help ensure all people’s interests are represented in a way that would not be possible via a singular, centralized administrative entity. The acts of such administrative entities are accountable, if at all, to just one centralized elected official, not to multiple elected deci- sionmakers representing states and regional interests.
