ABA Accuses Trump of Ignoring Rule of Law
The American Bar Association (ABA) strongly criticized President Trump’s administration for its chaotic and unlawful restructuring of the federal government, urging courts and attorneys to uphold the rule of law. The ABA cited the dismantling of USAID and other actions disregarding established legal processes as examples of this disregard. A federal judge’s rejection of a Trump executive order, upholding birthright citizenship, is highlighted as a positive example of judicial resistance to these actions. The ABA President called for adherence to the rule of law and condemned the administration’s actions as harmful and unjustifiable. The statement emphasizes these are not partisan issues but fundamental concerns regarding legal process and the integrity of American governance.
