The ABA's Governmental Affairs Office (GAO) serves as the "eyes, ears and voice" of the organized bar in the nation's capital. The GAO conveys the views of the Association on a broad range of issues each year to numerous governmental entities.
For more than 25 years, and through our work in more than 100 countries, the American Bar Association Rule of Law Initiative (ABA ROLI) and our partners have sought to strengthen legal institutions, to support legal professionals, to foster respect for human rights and to advance public understanding of the law and of citizen rights.
The ABA Office of the President assists the ABA presidential officers as they advocate on behalf of the legal profession.
