American Constitution Society

The American Constitution Society for Law and Policy (ACS) is a progressive legal organization. The group's stated mission is to "promote the vitality of the U.S. Constitution and the fundamental values it expresses: individual rights and liberties, genuine equality, access to justice, democracy and the rule of law."〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.acslaw.org/about/mission )
ACS was created as a counterweight to, and is modeled after, the Federalist Society, and is often described as its progressive counterpart.〔Michael McGough, (Supreme Court nomination battle spotlights legal societies and their divergent views: Newer American Constitution Society modeled on more conservative Federalist Society ) (August 14, 2005), ''Pittsburgh Post-Gazette''.〕〔Jonathan H.

Kmiec, (Let Dawn Do It ) (April 13, 2009). ''Legal Times''.〕
Founded in 2001, ACS is headquartered in Washington, D.C.〔 The organization promotes and facilitates discussion and debate of progressive public policy ideas and issues, providing forums for legal scholars, lawmakers, judges, lawyers, public policy advocates, law students and members of the media. ACS reports that it has approximately 200 law school student chapters and 40 lawyer chapters around the country.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=https://www.acslaw.org/chapters )
==History==
The American Constitution Society was founded in 2001 by Peter Rubin, a Georgetown Law School professor who served as counsel to Al Gore in the legal battle over the 2000 election. The group was originally known as the Madison Society for Law and Policy. The organization was formed as a counterweight to the conservative Federalist Society. It was founded in order to build a network of progressive lawyers and foster new avenues of progressive legal thought.〔 ACS received its initial funding from the William and Flora Hewlett Foundation.〔 The Democracy Alliance lists ACS as a recommended funding recipient.
