The Federalist Society

The Federalist Society is a legal organization in the United States that promotes a conservative and originalist interpretation of the Constitution. Founded in 1982, it brings together lawyers, judges, and law students who advocate for limited government, individual freedom, and a strict adherence to the Constitution as written. The Society has played a significant role in shaping judicial appointments and influencing legal debates, particularly during the Supreme Court nomination process. It provides a platform for conservative legal ideas and encourages discussions on issues like economic freedom, regulatory reform, and civil liberties.
