Unvetted, Unconfirmed U.S. Attorneys Shift Too Much Power to Trump
"There are few areas where constitutional checks and balances are more important than the selection of U.S. Attorneys, the 93 most powerful federal law enforcement officials across the country," said New York State Bar Association President Kathleen Sweet.

Understanding the Impact of the Muhammad Ali Case
There is no denying the impact Muhammad Ali had on the sport of boxing, yet a recent essay by a past president of the New York State Bar Association, T. Andrew Brown, details how his career and his willingness to hold firm to his beliefs changed much more than a sport.
Brown also provides a look at how maneuvering behind the scenes at the Supreme Court changed the eventual outcome of the his case Clay v. United States. Recently, he sat down with “Miranda Warnings” host David Miranda to talk about his research and the impact of the 1971 U.S. Supreme Court case.
“Ali changed the fight game, and he impacted life as we know it today, race relations, respect for the individual,” Brown said. “With respect to draftees, he limited the ability of government to mandate who was eligible for the draft and who would go to war.”
