WASHINGTON, Sept. 17, 2021 – The American Bar Association today celebrates the 234th anniversary of the United States Constitution, the document that has provided the framework for our democracy and the rule of law in America.
As lawyers, we swore an oath to support the Constitution. That means supporting, promoting, and protecting the ideals the Constitution embodies.
Our Constitution will remain sustainable only if we all remain dedicated to its protection.
