This week you will be writing an essay, 2-3 pages double-spaced in length, on what happens when Constitutional rights collide.  You can find an example from the news or caselaw,  but here are some suggestions:

-amendment.html#:~:text=The%20Fourth%20Amendment%20protects%20individuals,he%20is%20carrying%20a%20firearm%3F

 

If you find something that’s not technically a conflict, but is interesting to you, that’s fine!  Here are some interesting Constitutional issues:

 

– Can cities impose mask mandates?  Is this even a Constitutional issue, why or why not?

 

– Can a state make laws that put a greater burden on minority residents (think voting restrictions)?

 

– Should mandatory draft registration be imposed on both men and women?
