(18,362 posts)5. Most excellent: from their website: FIGHTING FOR WHAT MATTERS MOST
This program will focus on urgent, high-stakes impact litigation in areas such as:
Defending judicial independence
Protecting reproductive rights
Safeguarding immigrants rights
Advancing environmental justice
Resisting executive overreach
Our first major case? A class-action lawsuit filed on June 25 by L4GG and some of the countrys largest environmental organizations.
This is about sustaining the legal professions power to protectnot just advise, said Gary DiBianco, who will serve as Project Lead. When institutions and communities are under attack, its our job as lawyers to stand in the gap.
What were building is civic infrastructure, added John Marks. We want to make sure every American with a valid claim can get legal representation.
