Back to EpisodesIn Missouri schools, a law targeting antisemitism raises First Amendment concerns
Published 2 days, 14 hours ago
Description
Starting this fall, a new Missouri law will require school officials to define antisemitic behavior in their codes of conduct and report those cases to state officials. The law’s requirements raise concerns from attorneys that schools will be forced to violate the First Amendment to enforce them. On this month’s edition of the Legal Roundtable, attorneys Brenda Talent, Javad Khazaeli and Bill Freivogel talk about the free speech complications of the new law. The panel also discusses two recent rulings with major implications for November’s elections, a discrimination lawsuit with ties to the Mafia, and more.
