The American Bar Association State, Local, and Tribal Government Law Section (ABA SLTG) and Judicial Division (JD) Present Spring Conference: Defending Democracy and Strengthening Justice

Join judges, public officials, attorneys, and scholars in Atlanta for a dynamic, two-day conference exploring how the law protects democracy, reinforces public trust, and advances equity in a rapidly changing world.

As democratic institutions face unprecedented pressures, the legal profession’s role as a guardian of justice has never been more vital. This year’s conference convenes judges, public servants, attorneys, scholars, and students to examine how the law defends democracy, protects public officials, and advances equity for all communities. Through thought-provoking CLE sessions, networking events, and immersive site visits, participants will explore democracy’s legal foundations from courts to constitutions.
