About the Federalist Society

We are conservative and libertarian students concerned with the current state of our legal system. The Federalist Society was founded on the principles that the state exists to preserve freedom, that the separation of governmental powers is central to our Constitution, and that it is emphatically the duty of the judiciary to say what the law is, not what it should be.

Each semester, we work to promote awareness of these principles at UM Law and beyond, through a wide range of activities including speeches and debates, as well as social and networking events. For more information, visit the national Federalist Society website, or contact us.

CNN calls Justice O'Connor the "swing vote" in the Ten Commandments cases. Interesting observation since she voted against the display in both cases. It seems to me that Breyer was the swing vote this time since he was in the majority of both cases. Of course, since when does CNN look past labels to the facts?
