On November 16, 2019, the Federalist Society hosted the fourth showcase panel of the 2019 National Lawyers Convention at the Mayflower Hotel in Washington, DC. The panel discussed "Originalism and Precedent."

As always, the Federalist Society takes no particular legal or public policy positions. All opinions expressed are those of the speakers.
