Today, we commemorate June 19, 1865—the day the news of emancipation finally reached the last enslaved Black Americans in Galveston, Texas, two and a half years after the Emancipation Proclamation was signed.

Juneteenth is a time to reflect on our history, celebrate culture, and resilience, and recommit ourselves to the ongoing work of equity and justice for all.

Recently, ELPO Law attorney Aaron Smith participated in an en banc hearing before the U.S. Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals. ⚖️

Why is this a big deal?

1️⃣ Power in Numbers: Less than 1% of federal appeals are heard en banc. Instead of 3 judges, the entire court of judges sits together to decide the case. This happens when a legal issue is so large, or the lower court rules are so confusing that the whole court needs to step in to straighten it out.

2️⃣ Fixing Confusing Laws: The case addresses a major legal knot—the fact that courts currently use completely different standards to judge jail safety claims depending on whether an inmate is convicted or awaiting trial—creating a tricky and inconsistent environment inside the same jail facilities.

3️⃣ Seeking Consistency: We are pushing for a single, clear constitutional standard. When the law is consistent, it's easier to follow, easier to enforce, and better at protecting everyone's constitutional rights.

We were honored to sponsor a table at this year's Champions of Hope luncheon. This year's event was extra special as Bowling Green prepares to say farewell to Captains Johnny and Monica Horton and long-time board member, Joe Davis. A bittersweet day as they will all be greatly missed.
