The HCBA and RCBA Diversity Committees have three engaging CLEs planned for our May Race + Equity CLE series. These panel discussions will highlight the impact of ICE activity on the Twin Cities legal community, and particularly on diverse legal professionals.
Tomorrow afternoon, Minnesota attorneys will gather to reaffirm their oath to support the Constitution and uphold the principles of justice, due process, and the rule of law. The MSBA, HCBA, and RCBA invite you to join us in retaking your attorney’s oath—publicly reaffirming the importance of judicial independence, the rule of law, and the vital role attorneys play in protecting our democracy.
Thursday, May 7, 5:00 to 7:00 p.m. at Mosaic Venue
Walk-ins welcome!
Celebrate community and support access to justice at the Hennepin County Bar Foundation’s Bar Benefit, an evening dedicated to supporting the Foundation’s ongoing work in our legal community, featuring live music from The Reasonable Doubts.
