American Bar Association creates rapid response teams ahead of Election Day
The American Bar Association met last week in Chicago,
and some of its members want lawyers to be ready for this fall's election.
One of them is Jeh #Johnson, a former Secretary of Homeland Security under President Obama.
Another is J. Michael #Luttig, a former appeals court judge appointed by a Republican president.
They are both part of a bipartisan task force.
Judge Luttig warns that ♦️some in the Republican Party hope to overturn the election results as they tried after 2020.♦️
J MICHAEL LUTTIG: There are legions of lawyers and others who are preparing to challenge this election if, in their view, they need to.
Luttig and Johnson say that's why the ABA is creating #rapid #response #teams of lawyers
ready to move in when asked for legal help both before and after election day.
