A paper company, a government agency and a frog walk into the supreme Court. Find out what happened, next on The Constitution Study.
In this episode, we look at the supreme Court opinion in Weherhaeuser Co. v. U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service and what the definition of “habitat” is. This is the first opinion I’ve reviewed where the court not only came to a constitutional decision, but without one without some wacky dissent.
Like many of you, I am a product of the public schools. Like many of you I thought the Constitution was for lawyers and judges.
One day I read the Constitution, and was surprised to find I didn't need a law degree to understand it. Then I read the Declaration of Independence, the Federalist Papers and even the Anti-Federalist Papers. As I learned more and more about our founding fathers and documents I saw how little we know about how our country was designed to work and how many people just didn't care.
I started The Constitution Study to help those who also want read and study our Constitution.
