About this organization
Mission
The Federalist Society for Law and Public Policy Studies is a group of conservatives and libertarians interested in the current state of the legal order. It is founded on the principles that the state exists to preserve freedom, that the separation of governmental powers is central to our Constitution, and that it is emphatically the province and duty of the judiciary to say what the law is, not what it should be. The Society seeks both to promote an awareness of these principles and to further their application through its activities.
About
Practice Group Activities: The 15 Practice Groups offer a mechanism by which lawyers can explore conservative and libertarian ideas within the context of a number of specialized fields of law. The Practice Groups currently host more than 100 Teleforum programs per year, which connect hundreds of our members with legal experts analyzing a recent, noteworthy case. The Regulatory Transparency Project fosters a national conversation about regulation and its costs and benefits by examining many aspects of the Administrative State. Our Article One Project features discussion and examination of the proper role of Congress under our Constitution.
