2019 Constitution Day program
Kansas in the U.S. Supreme Court<https://doleinstitute.us1.list-manage.com/track/click?u=971c9a61bc896e4077645661a&id=b1f9efea48&e=1ec2f9157d>
Thursday, Sept. 19 – 7 p.m.

The U.S. Supreme Court has granted review to three separate cases involving the state of Kansas in 2019, which it will hear in October and November. Join Stephen McAllister, U.S. Attorney for the District of Kansas, and special guests as they explore the constitutional issues raised in each of three cases:

  *   Kansas v. Garcia: whether federal immigration laws preempt Kansas identity theft criminal laws.
  *   Kansas v. Kahler: whether a state is compelled by the due process clause of the 14th Amendment to recognize an “insanity defense.” Kansas—like some states, but not others—has abolished an affirmative insanity defense, and the defendant in question has argued he was legally insane at the time of the killings.
  *   Kansas v. Glover: in a case originating in Lawrence, whether it is reasonable for a law enforcement officer to assume the driver of the vehicle is its registered owner, as a general matter.
Guests panelists will include:

  *   Toby Crouse, Kansas Solicitor General
  *   Sarah E. Harrington, Goldstein & Russell, P.C. and counsel for the defense, Kansas v. Glover
  *   Tobias S. Loss-Eaton, Sidley Austin LLP and principal drafter of petition for certiorari, Kahler v. Kansas
  *   Derek Schmidt, Kansas Attorney General

Prospects for Peace in Afghanistan<https://doleinstitute.us1.list-manage.com/track/click?u=971c9a61bc896e4077645661a&id=041362ac04&e=1ec2f9157d>
Tuesday, Sept. 17 – 3 p.m.

A former minister of the interior for Afghanistan and Afghan ambassador to Germany, Ali Ahmad Jalali has written extensively on the military history of the country. He visits the institute to look at the current state of affairs in the nation and prospects for peace in the future. His latest work, “A Military History of Afghanistan: From the Great Game to the Global War on Terror,” offers extensive insight into the modern military history of Afghanistan, which has been waged by state and non-state actors, against domestic and foreign entities, and under rapidly changing conditions. This program includes a book sale and signing with the author.  |  How to attend »<https://doleinstitute.us1.list-manage.com/track/click?u=971c9a61bc896e4077645661a&id=2e404569e0&e=1ec2f9157d>

Votes for Women: Suffrage and the 19th Amendment Centennial<https://doleinstitute.us1.list-manage.com/track/click?u=971c9a61bc896e4077645661a&id=496d5d767a&e=1ec2f9157d>
Tuesday, Sept. 24  — 7 p.m.

One hundred years have not yet passed since the ratification of the 19th Amendment, which granted many—but not all—U.S. women the right to vote. Passed by the House and Senate in 1919, and reaching the threshold to become law of the land in 1920, it enfranchised 26 million women voters. In this 100th-anniversary kickoff event, a panel featuring professors Jinx Broussard (Louisiana State University), Teri Finneman (University of Kansas) and Candi Carter Olson (Utah State University) will examine the women’s suffrage movement and the legacy and limitations of this transformative amendment. This program is co-sponsored by the League of Women Voters of Kansas and its Centennial Celebration Committee.  |  How to attend »<https://doleinstitute.us1.list-manage.com/track/click?u=971c9a61bc896e4077645661a&id=a6455f02ee&e=1ec2f9157d>

Wednesday, Sept. 25 – 4 p.m.

In week one, fall fellow Nancy Bocskor will welcome Farhat Popal, senior program manager of the Women's Initiative at the George W. Bush Institute. Prior to joining the Bush Institute, Popal worked on human rights programs in Afghanistan and Central Asia at the State Department's Bureau of Democracy, Human Rights, and Labor in Washington D.C., and evaluated development projects in Afghanistan with the Special Inspector General for Afghanistan Reconstruction (SIGAR).  |  How to attend »<https://doleinstitute.us1.list-manage.com/track/click?u=971c9a61bc896e4077645661a&id=2af1aba9bf&e=1ec2f9157d>
