Meet CLC's Trustees & Advisors

We are thankful to our board of trustees for their guidance and support, and their commitment to democracy reform. 

We are also grateful to our Litigation Strategy Council,  a team of renowned, experienced Supreme Court litigators. The Council provides an invaluable forum for exploring legal issues and providing constitutional insights concerning money-in-politics issues. It includes four former Solicitors General of the United States.
