I know there is a lot going on, and the atrocities keep mounting. But the lack of coverage about these horrifying bigoted regs by my favorite legal and political podcasts this past week has deeply disappointed me. www.federalregister.gov/documents/20...

ACTION ALERT! ⚠️ Tomorrow morning, the U.S. House Oversight and Government Reform Committee will decide the future of Washington, DC’s second chance laws, including the Incarceration Reduction Amendment Act (IRAA), which has been lifesaving for many on a road to redemption.

3/ I am no longer recognizing anything that comes out of SCOTUS as binding. Just follow the “lower” honest courts. Y’all (and I do mean all) should do the same.

2/ And his continued wholesale denial of documented facts about the violence of the detentions, pretending instead they were merely brief stops, is a show of bald arrogance (this is so because I say it).

1/ This is far, far worse than second-class citizenship. To say that someone can’t demonstrate they have standing because they were ALREADY violently detained by ICE so they can’t show they will be so detained AGAIN is the most ass-backward, absurdist, double-fucking speak conclusion on the planet.

The killing, the culling of huge swaths of humanity that take up space and resources, NOT the cruelty, is the point. (The cruelty is simply a side benefit to this administration.)

It’s comforting for some lawyers to lament the “tough spot” Trump has put some law firms in. But I choose to remember what civil rights lawyers endured, and the integrity & courage they showed despite being considerably more vulnerable that well-resourced law firms being bullied by Trump.

NEW: The Pennsylvania Supreme Court expands pathways to legal parenthood, adopting the doctrine of "intent-based parentage" into state law. This is excellent news for same-sex couples and others who use IVF, ART, or have nontraditional families. www.pacourts.us/assets/opini...
JUSTICE DOUGHERTY DECIDED: March 20, 2025
I. Introduction
Our law in this Commonwealth presently recognizes four pathways to establish
legal parentage: biology, adoption, equity (i.e., parentage by a marital presumption or
estoppel), and contract where a child is born using Assistive Reproductive Technology
(ART). As we explain below, none of these existing paths applies to the facts of this case,
which involves a married same-sex couple who conceived a child using a sperm donor
and ART but did not enter into a contract and separated before the child was born. We
believe the time has come for our law to embrace a fifth pathway to parentage to account
for the situation at hand. We thus adopt the doctrine of intent-based parentage into our
common law and affirm the Superior Court en banc to the extent it found parentage was
established under that theory.

Nothing will kill more children than the ongoing decimation of CDC, NIH, and USAID work to lift vaccine uptake in the US and world. Child survival rose 75% in the last 50 years. Vaccines account for 40% of that. Measles vax alone was 60% of the benefit. www.thelancet.com/journals/lan...
