Miscellaneous Information |

What others are saying: |
- Founded
in 1979 by trial lawyer Nan Aron, it is a coalition of 60 member
organizations that work “to
advance the cause of justice for all Americans, strengthen the public
interest community’s ability to influence public policy, and foster the
next generation of advocates.”
- Gained
prominence for organizing opposition to President Ronald Reagan’s
nomination of Robert Bork to the U.S. Supreme Court.
- Conducts
workshops for young political activists; offers legal and tax advice for
left-leaning nonprofits and foundations; and leads Washington strategy
sessions advising activist groups and congressional staff on ways to
stymie conservative judicial nominations.
- An
advocate for nonprofit political activism and policy advocacy, it urges “nonprofit organizations to take
full advantage of election cycles” through “voter education, voter
participations, and candidate education.”
- Denounces
conservative legal groups that “lobby the judiciary on the evils of
government and the merits of an unfettered market” and attacks the “bold
attempt by business interests to buy access to judges, lawyers and law
students” while “cloaked in the respectability that the term ‘public
interest’ confers.”
- Its “Judicial
Selection Project” investigates federal judicial nominations and mobilizes
opposition to conservative nominees.
- Member
groups include Children’s Defense Fund, Planned Parenthood, SEIU, and
Sierra Club.
