LSDA

Our Mission

Law School Democrats of America exists to give law students an outlet to put their skills to work on behalf of the progressive policies that matter most to them while they’re still in the classroom.

Voter Protection & Legal Research

State parties around the country need lawyers and law students to do voter protection work in both short and medium-term capacities (e.g., long-term legal research into state voting laws, staffing voter protection hotlines, etc.) Underresourced states rely on law students for this support and LSDA connects law students to these opportunities to make an outsized impact in our elections.

Get Out the Vote

The 2024 election will see LSDA operating in every state in the country with a focus on eight target swing states. As the 2024 election gets closer, we will offer even more ways for law students to support campaigns directly with GOTV and other mission-critical efforts. In its inaugural year, LSDA focused on the 2023 gubernatorial races in
Kentucky, Louisiana, and Mississippi, as well as the Virginia state legislature elections. 

Professional Development

We look forward to building an intentional, inclusive, and mutually-supportive community of law students who are eager to continue being active in progressive politics throughout their careers. That includes in-person get togethers to build out the LSDA community. It also means virtual events with guest speakers to talk more about their career trajectories in law, politics, and activism. Building a deep bench is crucial for helping progressive policies come to life, and stay alive for generations to come.
