This Tuesday at 7:30 PM, I will be returning to my alma mater, Amherst College, to debate the constitutionality of the Obama health care plan individual mandate. Ilya Shapiro of the Cato Institute will be joining me in arguing that the mandate is unconstitutional. Our opponents will be Akhil Amar of Yale Law School and Roderick Hills of NYU. I previously commented on Amar’s defense of the mandate in this post.
The event is sponsored by the Amherst Political Union. Details available here.
