UNC Federalist Society

We are founded on the principles that the state exists to preserve freedom, that the separation of governmental powers is central to our Constitution, and that it is emphatically the province and duty of the judiciary to say what the law is, not what it should be.

@Hi_IQ_Trump @crgreen24601 @espinsegall @StephenESachs papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cf…. Originalism and the Sense-Reference Distinction by @crgreen24601

@crgreen24601 @UNCfedsoc @espinsegall @StephenESachs What does sense-reference have to do with originalism?

@StephenESachs @espinsegall @crgreen24601 Any dates in January or February that work? @StephenESachs @crgreen24601 @espinsegall

@espinsegall @UNCfedsoc @crgreen24601 Wholly agree—let’s put it on the schedule!

@crgreen24601 @espinsegall @StephenESachs Hey even the Framers get things wrong on occasion! good thing they provided for a census to check their estimates and original methods of legal change to make legally authorized corrections where they erred.

@espinsegall @crgreen24601 @StephenESachs Hopefully @crgreen24601 will make the trip to Chapel Hill, NC as well! Would love to host this conversation for our law students next semester
