Who We Are
Founded in 1982, the Federalist Society for Law and Public Policy Studies is a group of conservatives and libertarians dedicated to reforming the current legal order. We are committed to 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 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. The Society is a membership organization that features Student, Lawyer, and Faculty divisions, as well as other mission-driven programs and initiatives. With chapters in over 200 law schools and 100 cities, our membership includes more than 90,000 lawyers, law students, scholars, and other individuals committed to the Federalist Society's mission.
