Check out what we have in store for next week. All students are of course welcome as are any residents in or near the Rochester area. (I will repost this several times in the coming days, I apologize for that).
Liberty Week Speaker Series
"Litigating for Liberty"
Sunday March 25, 2012 7PM-8:30PM
University of Rochester, Goergen 101
Robert McNamara, Attorney
Institute for Justice
Currently, McNamara is lead counsel representing a group of Philadelphia tour guides challenging a law that would make it illegal for them to give tours without first obtaining a special license from the city government, literally making it illegal for them to talk about the Liberty Bell for compensation. His practice has also included representing Bill Brody, a Westchester County, NY, property owner who is fighting against his state's outrageously unfair eminent domain procedures and a group of Colorado homeowners in their fight to be able to speak freely about politics without subjecting themselves to the threat of lawsuits from their political opponents.

Will any of these have at least an audio recording that can be posted online?
