Minor mystery re: US legal history:

I came across this 1989 pamphlet summarizing US Immigration law. The "PROBLEMS" list has 33 reasons the US might deny visitors/immigrants or require certain permits/visas/authorizations.

#24 is marked "[Repealed]". What was it, and when did Congress repeal it?

https://catalog.gpo.gov/F?func=find-b&find_code=WTI&local_base=GPO01PUB&request=immigration+laws+general+information+ lists the editions of this pamphlet; I think to read them I have to hit up a FDLD.

Vernon Bogdanor’s Gresham Lecture on George V is interesting, witty, and full of interesting points of constitutional law: https://youtube.com/watch?v=NRK75kl7Dw0&feature=share worth watching. #Law #LegalTheory #LegalHistory #Monarchy #UK #Constitution
