We didn’t win everything. The equal protection and due process claims didn’t go anywhere—the court applied rational basis and wasn’t willing to recognize a standalone right to engage in charity.
But it still a great win for freedom!

Myself, @Anastasia_esq, and the whole team @PacificLegal just won a case in the Southern District of Ohio with an opinion that had more references to burritos and tacos than a Taco Bell menu. 🌮

Nebraska is the only state in the country that bars certified nurse midwives from attending home births — and midwives who do can face felony charges. Yesterday, three Nebraska mothers filed a federal suit to restore their freedom to choose how and where to give birth.

JUST IN! We won our lawsuit on behalf of a charity whose volunteer was put in handcuffs for handing a homeless man a burrito without a permit. It's a great First Amendment win. @PacificLegal @cgtown But here's the best part... the "taco" test... 🌮

We're all filed in Hadley v. South Bend.
This @IJ case asks the Supreme Court to address the circuit split over whether (and how) destructive SWAT raids are takings under the Fifth Amendment.
Hadley and its companion case, Pena v. L.A., will be on the long conference.
Patrick Jaicomo@pjaicomo
🚨CERT ALERT @IJ filed 2 cert. petitions urging SCOTUS to apply the original meaning of 5th Amdt's Takings Clause and require just compensation for destructive SWAT raids. The cases are Pena v. LA and Hadley v. SB. The circuits are split. 2 Justices have registered interest.
