Out now, Family Regulation’s Consent Problem! In which I describe (some of!) the incredibly coercive & unconstitutional methods the state uses to extract families’ consent to home searches… columbialawreview.org/content/fami... (1/3)

Very happy to share that my article, Family Regulation's Consent Problem, will run in @ColumLRev! I argue that fam reg "consent" searches regularly violate the Constituion. . . & that the Constitution is a woefully incomplete solution to surveillance of marginalized communities.

Delighted to share that Family Regulation Prosecutors will be published in @PennLRev. Thanks to all (including the prosecutors who inspired this when I was in practice. . .) who helped make this stronger! Draft is available here & comments are welcome!...

A beautiful and thorough piece by @strawburriez , laying out why a carceral approach to “child welfare” — punishing individual families for societal problems — has got to go. Very exciting to see abolition move in from the fringes!

Last month, I spoke on a panel w/ the ACS commissioner & he said, "I believe [parents'] constitutional rights are clear." This month, ACS lobbies to remove the word "rights" from a bill informing parents of their rights. Huh....

This is absolutely not what prosecutors do in 99.9% of cases — they constantly overcharge to coerce pleas, charge after virtually no investigation, etc—and it’s absolutely wild, infuriating & irresponsible that @nytimes continues to run with this kind of narrative.
