Federalist Society : January 2008

Welcome to Talking Justice Sign in | Join | Help

The Federalist Society for Law and Public Policy Studies is a group of conservatives and libertarians 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 among lawyers, judges, and law professors. and to further their application by reordering priorities within the legal system to place a premium on individual liberty, traditional values, and the rule of law.
