Voting Rights and the Equal Protection Clause: Oral Arguments in Louisiana v. Callais

Thursday, October 16

This conference, presented by FSU’s Election Law Center, will be a one-hour teleforum taking place on October 16, 2025, at 12:30 PM EST. We’ll bring together three panelists and a moderator to dig into the U.S. Supreme Court’s oral arguments in Louisiana v. Callais — a pivotal case balancing Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act and the Equal Protection Clause. The discussion will highlight key moments from the justices’ questions and unpack what the decision could mean for election law and constitutional doctrine. Continuing Judicial Education (CJE) and CLE credit is available.
