Peter Keisler and Judge Luttig in NYT
The New York Times reported on an open letter calling on Attorney General Pam Bondi to protect the legal profession, circulated by the Society for the Rule of Law Institute in partnership with Democracy Forward. The Times writes:
More than 4,000 legal professionals have signed an open letter to Attorney General Pam Bondi that raises concerns about the administration’s attacks on law firms. The letter urges the Justice Department’s leadership “to preserve and protect the independence and integrity of the legal profession” by “opposing the use of the federal government to attack lawyers, law firms and legal organizations for engaging in good faith representation of their clients.”
Among the signatories to the letter, dated March 23 and sent Wednesday morning by mail and email, are prominent conservatives including J. Michael Luttig, a retired appellate judge, and Peter Keisler, a founder of the Federalist Society.
