A Day (Or 2) In the Life of A Legal Aid Attorney
So many different things happen in the course of one day at a local legal aid office that EJM decided to spend the better part of two with Elizabeth Moulton of Colorado Legal Services to capture the full scope of what legal services lawyers actually do.

Special Report: New Congress

Looking Up In Washington

A Republican takeover in Congress doesn't mean what you may think. With new faces bringing more legal aid experience than ever to Capitol Hill, and old hands rededicated to the promise of "justice for all," public interest advocates can expect a bright future.

Just Right

Thanks to a supportive White House and the political leaders like Senators Pete Domenici (R-NM), Tom Harkin (D-IA), Gordon Smith (R-OR), and newcomer John Cornyn (R-TX), LSC has achieved a level of bipartisan support unrivaled in its 28-year history... and Congress just anted up an extra $9.5 million to prove it. In this 27-page special section, EJM highlights the many freshman Members who bring equal justice experience to the job, as well as incumbents fighting for additional LSC resources.
