You may know May Day is International Workers Day, attended by marches and demonstrations around the world. But it is also Law Day, a day to celebrate the rule of law. The ABA designated the theme of gender equality, and encourages us to consider "the movement for civil and human rights in America and the work that remains to be accomplished."
We know many of you are studying for your Con Law final, and Law Day comes complete with its own expression of constitutional powers. President Obama issued a Law Day proclamation, tracing his action to a public law.
In the words of the President, "Law Day is a chance to reaffirm the critical role our courts have always played in addressing those wrongs and aligning our Nation with its first principles. Let us mark this occasion by celebrating that history, upholding the right to due process, and honoring all who have sustained our proud legal tradition." And perhaps also by cramming for con law.
