This supplement brings the principal text current with recent developments in the law.
This widely adopted soft cover casebook, adapted from Choper, Dorf, Fallon, and Schauer's Constitutional Law but with numerous additional references and comments, is designed for a two- or three-unit course in the First Amendment. The new Seventh Edition has been thoroughly revised, tightened, and updated. The authors present the materials in a way that permits instructors to depart from the organization of the casebook with relative ease. The authors also expose students to original perspectives or perspectives they might otherwise miss. Notes and questions enable students to study the variety of competing views embodying the First Amendment as they emerge from concrete cases rather than imposing an abstract characterization and classification on the student at the outset of the study. And the extensive references help students to situate the cases within larger academic and theoretical debates. The new edition of the casebook contains a revised organization of the basic freedom of speech materials on content regulation, forum analysis, and the coverage/scope of the First Amendment, and further includes hundreds of new cases and references. There has been substantial editing to make way for the new material, and thus the book remains of appropriate size for either a two- or three-unit course. The new speech cases cover issues involving the types of content regulation (Reed v. Town of Gilbert), government speech (Walker v. Texas Division, Sons of Confederate Veterans), racist speech (Matal v. Tam), commercial speech (Expressions Hair Design v. Schneiderman), compelled expression (Janus v. AFSCME and National Institute of Family and Life Advocates v. Becerra), and government motive (Heffernan v. City of Paterson). On freedom of religion, the 7th edition adds extensive coverage of the new cases involving argued hostility to particular religions or religious beliefs (Masterpiece Cakeshop v. Colorado Civil Rights Commission and Trump v. Hawaii) while also providing materials to facilitate discussion and analysis of questions regarding claimed exemptions from laws of general application.

This long-popular casebook has two main distinguishing attributes. First, because students benefit from sustained engagement with Supreme Court opinions, pivotal cases are edited less substantially than in many other books. Second, because Constitutional Law is an argumentative practice situated in ongoing debates, this edition follows its predecessors in exposing students to diverse perspectives in the Notes and Questions that follow most principal cases. Instructors will especially like the illuminating and provocative extracts from the literature that accompany important new cases. In preparing the new edition, the editors have made judicious cuts to enable the addition of new material and have thoroughly revised several chapters to reflect developments in the case law.

Although the Constitution of the United States of America states that there shall be no laws that either establish or prohibit religion, the application of the Religion Clauses throughout United States history has been fraught with conflict and ambiguity. In this book, a constitutional scholar proposes a set of guidelines meant to provide for the consistent application of the First Amendment's Religion Clauses. Choper's guidelines are designed to provide maximum protection for religious freedom without granting anyone an advantage, inflicting a disadvantage or causing an unfair burden. Though not calling for the wholesale overturning of judicial precedents or established social practices, the standards he proposes would result in significant - and controversial - modifications to existing doctrines and customs. Choper argues, for instance, that while vocal prayer and Bible reading in public schools should continue to be prohibited, we can and should allow for silent prayer and objective courses in creation science. His standards would also, among other things, eliminate the tax exemption on property used exclusively for religious purposes, while allowing parochial schools to receive public funds for the non-religious component of their education.
