Should We Repeal the 17th Amendment?

I will be speaking this afternoon (Monday April 18) at Marquette Law School on the question, “Should We Repeal the 17th Amendment?” The talk is at 3:30 and will be sponsored by the Marquette Student Chapter of the Federalist Society.

I wrote a couple of law review articles on this a few years back; unfortunately, neither is generally available on line. Accessible summaries of my arguments can be found in this column by Bruce Bartlett and this one by John Dean.

Hope to see you there.
