Constitutional Law - Privileges and Immunities


Listen Later

Join your AI hosts Maude and Claude for Constitutional Law - Episode 10, as we tackle the often-confused Privileges and Immunities clauses! Based on Angela's comprehensive notes, this episode provides clarity on two pivotal constitutional provisions, essential for your bar exam success.

First, we dissect Article IV's Privileges and Immunities Clause. Discover how it prevents states from discriminating against non-residents regarding fundamental rights or important economic activities, such as earning a living or accessing state courts. Learn the high bar a state must meet to justify any such discrimination, emphasizing the crucial link between the discriminatory means and a substantial state reason.

Then, we shift to the much narrower 14th Amendment Privileges or Immunities Clause. While historically limited in scope, its modern significance is undeniable in protecting the fundamental right to interstate travel. We'll delve into the landmark case of Saenz v. Roe, revealing how it prevents states from treating new permanent residents unequally compared to long-term residents.

This episode offers vital distinctions and key case law to master the intricate dynamics of federalism and individual rights. Elevate your Constitutional Law understanding! Subscribe and listen now to gain confidence for exam day.
