Mission Statement

Justice is the foundation of democracy. The Justice Caucus Mission is to promote the cause of progressive democracy within the Democratic Party, in government and in the legal profession. Progressive democracy recognizes that all human endeavor, including the exercise of legal power, though continually changing, must guarantee social and economic justice, civil rights, integrity and fairness. The Justice Caucus seeks to promote these values by participating in the nomination and election of progressive people of integrity, fairness and competence for judicial and other public offices, and by encouraging the exercise of these values in our government and the legal profession.
