General Discussion

I'm in my second year of law school. We have a very active Federalist Society. Is there a progressive equivalent to that group?

The apparent total out-classing of Donald Verrilli by the impressive Paul Clement prompts me to write. I know Clement came up in the Federalist Society, and I know how important the Federalist Society has been to the tremendous success conservative justices have had advancing their interpretation of the Constitution over the past decade.

My fear is we have been and remain out-organized in the legal realm. I would like to do what little I can to help change that.

Again, I'm looking for a progressive equivalent to the Federalist Society.

Additionally I'd appreciate any book recommendations regarding progressive efforts to respond to the recent conservative judicial ascendance.

Thanks so much for your replies!
