Barnett and Bernick focus on the privileges or immunities clause, a critique of Kurt Lash on the Fourteenth Amendment. It was this very question that Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg put to attorney Alan Gura during oral argument in McDonald v. City of Chicago, as he was urging the Court to revive the Privileges or Immunities Clause to protect the right to keep and bear arms. On May 23, 1868, Jacob Howard, senator from Michigan, former attorney general of Michigan, and the designated sponsor of the Fourteenth Amendment in the Senate, delivered a comprehensive and widely reported address in which he addressed this question. Howard explained that an amendment was necessary to protect these privileges and immunities because, at present, they did not operate in the slightest degree as a restraint or prohibition on State legislation.
