ACS is excited to announce our third annual Love Our Constitution initiative happening February 2019. Love Our Constitution encourages lawyers to share their love of the US Constitution by leading community discussions focused on the federal judiciary at any time during February, but especially surrounding Valentine’s week. ACS has prepared presentation materials and additional resources to make it easy for everyone to organize a discussion of any size. Last year's presentations included lawyers teaching neighbors, friends, boy scout troops, community college classes, and more all across the country. Volunteers will help organize and plan local events to foster discussion on the Constitution and the role of the courts in American law and policy.

In the past couple of years, we have seen the power of the judiciary to curb executive overreach. We have also seen judicial nominations by the administration that lack diversity, lack the necessary qualifications, and promote divisive ideologies, making them unrepresentative of and unfit to judge the American people. Now more than ever, informing and engaging the public is crucial to preserving our judicial institutions and promoting justice for all people.

This program is designed to highlight Article III of the U.S. Constitution, which establishes the role of courts as a robust and impartial institution. Our court system ensures that constitutional civil liberties such as justice, fairness, and equality are afforded to all individuals, regardless of a person’s race, ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, citizenship, or disability status.
