ABA seems to have taken a leftward turn in recent years.
I went to one meeting where they discussed the constantly changing privacy rules on Facebook (always with less privacy of course). Years ago. Excellent meeting.
But what I’ve heard lately is not good.
I mentioned the ABA as the Left’s equivalent of the Heritage Foundation and Federalist Society mentioned in the article.
The ABA is at least as far left of center and they imply the Heritage Foundation and Federalist Society being right of center. I would consider both to be dead center.
