Keeping Faith with the Constitution is a new book published by ACS and authored by legal scholars Goodwin Liu, Pamela Karlan, and Christopher Schroeder. The authors present in accessible language a compelling and common-sense approach to constitutional interpretation - one that is faithful to the Constitution's words and principles and that explains why our founding document is the world's most enduring written constitution, able to address the changing needs and conditions of our society, just as the Framers intended. Keeping Faith also explores why concepts such as “originalism” and “strict construction” are inconsistent with the intent of the framers.
