Does Democracy Matter?

Event Description

In-Person Only CLE.

Co-Sponsored by the Mitchell Hamline School of Law and the Ramsey County Bar Association

Program Description:

On the eve of one of the most anticipated Presidential elections in U.S. history, the American Bar Association (ABA) released its 2024 Survey of Civic Literacy . The results showed a general concern about the status of our democracy, placing blame on misinformation, political parties, social media, and a lack of civility.  And half of those responding to the survey felt that the public is not very informative about how democracy works.  As lawyers we have taken an oath to support rule of law in an honest and courteous manner.  Come listen to a moderated panel discussion about the status of our democracy and what we can do to preserve it for the future generation. Light refreshments will be available.
