Excellent conversation this past week between students and Justice Edward Mansfield from the Iowa Supreme Court. Justice Mansfield spoke on the contrasts between state and federal constitutional interpretation and how the application of originalist principles is different in the former. Much thanks for his time and sincerity! ⚖👨‍⚖️👨‍🏫
