Professor Rebecca Haw Allensworth sitting on a desk and speaking during our Distinguished Speaker event
Grateful to Prof Rebecca Haw Allensworth for her talk today, “The Licensing Racket,” which explored how licensing boards, full of subject-matter experts but often lacking regulatory perspective, can, in the pursuit of a “more professional profession,” engage in practices that limit access to care.
Policies shape health. Now we can measure how. The PIPH Project, co-led by Prof. Heather Walter-McCabe, has released the first dataset tracking U.S. conversion therapy laws. Read more: www.slu.edu/law/news/202...

Copy of the flyer for Rebecca Haw Allensworth's presentation at SLU Law with information about the event and her bio: The Licensing Racket: How We Decide Who Is Allowed to Work, and Why It Goes Wrong. Monday, Nov. 3, 2025, 12 p.m., Scott Hall 1166 Rebecca Haw Allensworth is the Associate Dean for Research and David Daniels Allen Distinguished Chair of Law at Vanderbilt University Law School. She studies antitrust and professional licensing. Her antitrust scholarship focuses on the policy and value judgments inherent in the law’s focus on consumer welfare, with a special emphasis on competition policy for tech platforms. Her research on professional licensing explores how lawmakers should balance the need for expertise in regulating the professions with the problems that come with self-regulation. She is the author of The Licensing Racket: How We Decide Who Is Allowed to Work and Why It Goes Wrong (Harvard University Press, February 2025), a deep dive into the pathologies of professional licensing in America. Her article about medical licensing boards and unethical prescribers, “Licensed to Pill,” appeared in The New York Review of Books in July 2020. Her work has been cited by the U.S. Supreme Court and has received the thirteenth annual Jerry S. Cohen Memorial Fund Writing Award for groundbreaking antitrust scholarship. She has advised three presidential administrations and testified twice before Congress.
Join us (in person or via Zoom!) on Mon., Nov. 3, @ Noon CT as Prof Haw Allensworth of Vanderbilt University Law School presents The Licensing Racket: How We Decide Who Is Allowed to Work, and Why It Goes Wrong.
