  • She Spent Life Savings on Salon…City Council: “Nope.”

    She Spent Life Savings on Salon…City Council: “Nope.”
    Dec 2 2025
    When Khalilah Few wanted to expand her natural hair salon business, she found a long-empty store front in Clayton County, Georgia, and spent her life savings renovating it. But she soon discovered that Clayton County singles out hair salons and barbershops for special restrictions. Because there are three other salons within several miles, the county told Khaliah she couldn’t open. Today we talk with IJ senior attorneys Renée Flaherty and Will Aronin to discuss how Georgia protects the right to earn an honest living and how IJ will make sure Khalilah and other entrepreneurs can open for business. https://youtu.be/5kN_buJhpvY Become a Monthly Donor Are you looking for a rewarding and consistent way to support IJ’s work?

    When the government, or even a private company, takes your land using eminent domain, the law promises you just compensation. But what about the thousands of dollars you spent on legal fees fighting for your fair share? For a group of North Dakotans facing off against a natural gas company, the answer could be: Tough luck. Today we're joined by IJ Deputy Litigation Director Bob McNamara, and IJ attorney Matt Liles. We’ll discuss what just compensation really means, how the government lets private companies abuse eminent domain, and what IJ is doing to stop it. https://youtu.be/R7m8MdZD5KM Become a Monthly Donor Are you looking for a rewarding and consistent way to support IJ’s work?
