During this event, our expert panel will examine two of Project 2025's major policies that threaten independence in governance with partisan conflict: 

1) The Reclassification of Schedule F employees, and 2) Changes to the DOJ, especially those which threaten prosecutorial discretion

The discussion will rotate between experts in constitutional law, admin law, and criminal prosecution, examining why public interest and justice, rather than partisan interests, should be the guiding star for government lawyers.

Alabama Law's chapter of ACS is partnering with the University of Alabama at Birmingham School of Medicine chapter of Medical Students for Choice to host a two-part reproductive healthcare panel. The first event will be hosted by the medical students and will talk about the medical perspective of the current state of reproductive care in Alabama. For the second event, we are hosting the Legal Director of the ACLU of Alabama, Alison Mollman, to talk about her work in the field of reproductive healthcare law. Ms. Mollman will talk about the state of the reproductive healthcare law in Alabama post-Dobbs.
