“70 Years After Steel Seizure: The Limits of Executive Power”

February 16, 2022 @ 7:00 pm - 8:00 pm

Free

The Robert H. Jackson Center invites the public to its annual Jackson Day in Warren event in honor of U.S. Supreme Court Justice Robert H. Jackson’s birth on February 13, 1892 in Spring Creek, PA.

The keynote speaker for our 2022 Warren Day will be Matthew Steilen, Professor of Law at the University at Buffalo School of Law where he teaches constitutional law and legal history. He holds a J.D. from Stanford Law School and a Ph.D. in Philosophy from Northwestern University.

Professor Steilen will address the relevance of Justice Jackson’s U.S. Supreme Court opinion in the Youngstown Sheet & Tube Co. v. Sawyer (1952), or ‘Steel Seizure,’ case that set the standard for the scope of a U.S. president’s authority.

The event will be held in the Main Courtroom at the Warren County Courthouse, 204 4th Avenue, Warren, PA. The program is free, but please consider a charitable donation to support free access to all Jackson Center programs: https://www.roberthjackson.org/donation-campaign/your- gifts-your-future/

We will also be broadcasting this event live online. Please complete registration below to receive confirmation email with the link to join.

This event was made possible, in part, through the generosity of our donors and the Robert H. Jackson/Samuel F. Bonavita Lectureship Fund held at the Chautauqua Region Community Foundation.
