ACS x FedSoc: When Can the Military Be Used for Domestic Policing?

Join the American Constitution Society and Federalist Society chapters at the University of Wisconsin Law School for a conversation about when the President may use the military for domestic policing, as has recently taken place in Los Angeles and the District of Columbia. The event is generously sponsored by the Center for the Study of Liberal Democracy. Lunch will be provided.

The event will be moderated by Prof. Joshua Braver, who is teaching a class this semester on Civil-Military Relations.

ACS's panelist is Joseph Nunn, counsel at the Brennan Center for Justice's Liberty and National Security Program. He focuses on issues surrounding the domestic activities of the U.S. military, including the Insurrection Act, the Posse Comitatus Act, National Guard deployments, and martial law.

FedSoc's panelist is Andrew Atkins, an attorney at Holy Cross Law LLC and former deputy legal counsel for the Office of the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff.
