America First Legal will focus on a few things: executive branch issues and giving Joe Biden headaches.

Former Trump White House policy adviser Stephen Miller, known for his hard-line immigration policies and conservative culture war postures, is launching a new legal group. And hes looking to use it to make Joe Bidens life miserable.
The group, which will be known as America First Legal, will help organize Republican attorneys general against perceived executive branch abuses in addition to filing lawsuits of its own, according to six people familiar with the planning.
During the Trump administration, we had the ACLU and three or four other advocacy groups consistently working with Democrats to coordinate against our policies. Miller is taking a page out of their book, said a senior Trump administration official briefed on Millers plans.
Millers organization will join a fairly crowded ecosystem of conservative-leaning legal entities, including Judicial Watch, Alliance Defending Freedom and the Immigration Reform Law Institute. But unlike those entities, which tend to operate around specific issues, such as religious liberty, free speech or immigration, America First Legal will be broadly focused on administrative law and executive overreach. That issue focus is derived, in large part, from the experiences that Miller and fellow Trump veterans confronted during the last administration.

Miller has been putting America First Legal together with guidance from former Sen. Jim DeMints Conservative Partnership Institute and Clinton-impeachment lawyer Ken Starr, who also served on Trumps first impeachment defense team. Gene Hamilton, a former Justice Department lawyer, has also been involved and is expected to oversee the groups legal work since Miller himself is not a trained attorney, while former White House chief of staff Mark Meadows, currently a senior partner at CPI, will serve on its board.
