As we turn the page on another impactful ABA Day, we extend our deepest gratitude to all who contributed to making this year's event a resounding success. ABA Day 2024 brought together advocates from across the nation, both in person and online, to amplify our collective voice on critical issues affecting the administration of justice – a testament to the unwavering commitment of the legal community.
Under the leadership of our ABA Day 2024 Planning Committee, led by Chair Barbara Howard, and the dedicated efforts of our Governmental Affairs Office, this year's event marked a new chapter in the coordination of online and in-person participation.

While almost 200 advocates made their presence felt in Washington, D.C., hundreds more added their voices virtually by engaging with their elected officials in home district offices or online. Through a combination of in-person meetings, digital advocacy campaigns, a broadcast featuring champions and members of Congress, and more, we harnessed the power of technology to bridge distances and elevate our collective advocacy efforts.
During the digital broadcast, participants had the opportunity to hear from esteemed members of Congress, including Rep. Mary Gay Scanlon, Rep. Kelly Armstrong, Sen. Peter Welch, Sen. Ron Wyden, and others. Their insights, coupled with compelling addresses from speakers like LSC President Ron Flagg, underscored the urgency of our advocacy work and galvanized participants to take action.
