Summary
This measure would, among other things, declare that using executive orders to silence opposition and chill legal advocacy is an unlawful attack on the right of Americans to seek counsel and would designate May 1 as Law Day to not only commemorate the importance that law plays in California but to stand in solidarity with the legal community.
