True North Issues New Research Report Detailing Who Is Targeting State Courts to Limit Freedoms

https://truenorthresearch.org/2024/04/report-who-is-targeting-state-courts-to-limit-our-freedoms/

In 2024, America will witness some of the most expensive state judicial elections in history, with attack ads largely fueled by men with vast fortunes trying to make their personal agendas into binding law. True North is issuing a new research report shining a light on those men–Leonard Leo, Dick Uihlein, Charles Koch, and Jeff Yass–and right-wing groups targeting state courts and other levers of power to change the rules and limit our freedoms. This new report also documents how Leo used the Federalist Society to target state supreme courts and the judicial selection process in order to advance his agenda, and more.
