Chemerinsky, Eastman to debate health-care act

Two Orange County law school deans will debate the Affordable Care Act on Wednesday.

In celebration of Constitution Day, the founding dean of UC Irvine’s law school, Erwin Chemerinsky, will debate John Eastman, former dean of the Chapman University School of Law.

Orange Coast College’s Social and Behavioral Sciences division is hosting the event at the campus.

The two legal scholars will take sides on President Barack Obama’s health-care plan.

Last year they debated the Constitution during a similar event at OCC.

The event is free and runs from 11 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. in the Robert B. Moore Theatre, 2701 Fairview Road, Costa Mesa.
