Thank you to everyone who participated in ABA Day 2011! Watch the highlight video below to see how effective your visits were this year:

Join 2011-2012 ABA President Wm. T. (Bill) Robinson III and your fellow ABA, state, local and specialty bar leaders for this annual "lobby day" in Washington, DC. The Obama Administration and the 112th Congress will be considering legislation that directly impacts you, your bar entity, your clients, the legal profession and the administration of justice. Your active participation is vital to our ability to cut through the noise of other special interests on Capitol Hill and successfully educate the Congress on issues of importance to lawyers. For more information, review the links below. Please note that the free registration period is closed.  A late fee of $100 will now be applied to registration. If you would still like to register for ABA Day 2012, please email Alex Kandalaft at alexandra.kandalaft@americanbar.org. We are very grateful for your support and want to encourage constituent participation, but late registration is expensive for us.  See why bar leaders should attend ABA Day by visiting our ABA Day Highlights page.
