LDAD is working to bring the cause of democracy to campuses across the country through a student-led initiative, Students Defending American Democracy.
LDAD launched “Meeting the Moment – A Call for Lawyers to Lead” to galvanize lawyers across the country to engage with their communities about what is at stake and why it should matter to everyone
Donations help us to expand and strengthen our coalition and our work. You may contribute any amount you choose or join us by making a monthly recurring donation.
Our Democracy Commitment offers a blueprint for lawyers to help ensure our democratic institutions are stabilized, the right to vote is enhanced, and vigorous civil discourse is undertaken with respect.
LDAD is developing Action Alerts to encourage rapid responses to the ongoing attacks on the Constitution, the rule of law, our justice system, and democracy. Our Action Alerts provide specific guidance to galvanize lawyers and the public to respond in real time.
