Something about high impact litigation: never trust ANYONE’S take on an opinion within minutes of a federal court dropping it. Those opinions can be hundreds of pages long & the case experts have yet to dissect it. People are rushing to deliver a scoop without barely having the facts.

Overall, I agree. But the Fourteenth Amendment’s citizenship guarantee is very much about reproduction, even if its text doesn’t explicitly mention “parent” or “domicile.” I discuss this in my new article, Reproducing Citizenship: papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers....

By reproducing the conditions of Dred Scott and applying them to the “mythical illegal immigrant,” one who is often coded as Latine and/or Indigenous and who can never truly belong in the USA, the government is picking its citizenry—not the other way around.

Neoshia Roemer @profnroemer.bsky.social · 20/02/2026
Taking an interdisciplinary approach, I situate the Fourteenth Amendment’s citizenship guarantee within family law. I argue that the Trump Administration’s birthright citizenship order is an attempt to control reproduction and the family.

Autonomy, Control, and the Broken Promise of Equality in American Law Edited by Austin Sarat and Susanna Lee .The cover is dark grey with a statue of lady justice with mask and gloves. The table of content for the book Regulating the Body Autonomy, Control, and the Broken Promise of Equality in American Law Edited by Austin Sarat and Susanna Lee .Abstract: Wearing face masks has been an important strategy to mitigate the spread of COVID-19. Yet this practice has also been highly politicized since the beginning of the pandemic. In this chapter, I explore how shaming tactics—the stigmatization and public disgrace of the norm violator—have been used to regulate masking. This strategy highlights how mask policies in the U.S. have depended on private enforcement throughout all stages of the pandemic; that is, enforcement by laypeople rather than public entities. I trace this phenomenon through early, top-down mask mandates, to the present moment, after universal mask mandates have been lifted, and masking has shifted to become an individualized disability accommodation. While paying close attention to how norms about mask wearing intersect with gender and race, I highlight dichotomous approaches to private, ideologically-driven, enforcement of public health policy: as the Right has doubled down on shaming people for wearing masks, people in the disability community have reacted by enforcing mask wearing in public spaces and holding people who they see as members of the in-group (activists and allies) accountable. This chapter thus contributes to the legal debate on shaming as a law enforcement tactic, as well as to the understanding of how disability law plays out in everyday life.

Although ICWA's opponents continue to argue the remedial nature of ICWA, ICWA is not an "antiquated statute" responding to purely historical acts. The destruction of American Indian families continues today, and ICWA provides process for Tribes and families alike.

Neoshia Roemer @profnroemer.bsky.social · 05/05/2025
Haaland v. Brackeen (2023) inspired this Article. Congress enacted ICWA to remedy the settler colonial violence of Indian child removal. Yet, today, settlers continue to assert a perceived right to Indian children as one that should be protected. This is incongruent with congressional goals.
