  • 2020 Annual Report Is Now Available
    ATLANTIC LEGAL FOUNDATION 2020 ANNUAL REPORT THE YEAR IN REVIEW TheAtlantic Legal Foundation (“ALF”) progresses into its 44th year in 2021 in pursuit of its mission to foster sound science in judicial and regulatory proceedings; promote parental school choice and the effective education of our next generation of Americans; assure enlightened corporate governance; and uphold the rule of law under our Constitution by advocating limited and efficient government, individual liberty and free enterprise. In pursuing its Mission as fully stated at page 47 following, Atlantic Legal is well established as the leading organization in America for fostering justice through sound science in judicial and regulatory proceedings. While diligent in pursuing all of its Mission objectives, ALF especially recognizes today’s crying need for promoting and assuring the historically sound education of our youth. This need has become compelling in light of failing schools with educational deficiencies attributable to coronavirus constraints and the controversy surrounding the 1619 Project’s indoctrination of our youth followed by the recent abolishment of the 1776 Commission formed to promote American Founding Values. The President’s The President’s Advisory 1776 Commission Report was released in January of 2021 and is posted on the Atlantic Legal Foundation’s website. These concerns are paramount for patriotic Americans. See the sections on Effective Education and Charter School Advocacy at pages 17 and 23 following. 2020 was a trying time for us all. Atlantic Legal was challenged in 2020 by the coronavirus constraints preventing its annual fundraising Awards Dinner for 2019 in the spring of 2020 and again this spring of 2021 for 2020, as well as by the year-end retirement of its long time Executive Vice President -- General Counsel, Martin S.

What is Fair Opportunity in Affordable Housing? [A] decent place for a family to live becomes a platform for dignity and self-respect and base for hope and improvement. A decent home allows people to take advantage of opportunities in education, health and employment—the means to get ahead in our society. A decent home is the important beginning point for growth into the mainstream of American life. —The National Housing Task Force, “A Decent Place to Live,” 19881 The phrases “decent home” and “a decent place to live” get tossed around a good deal, making it too easy to lose sight of what they really mean. President Franklin Delano Roosevelt first mentioned the right to a decent home in his “Second Bill of Rights” to ensure economic security in a democratic society.2 The term was codified in the Housing Act of 1949, which espoused the national goal of “a decent home and a suitable living environment for every American family.”3 In this context, then, housing is much more than a universal necessity, a mere dwelling for shelter from the elements.

  • 74 Portraits Hang in the Halls of YLS. Only 6 Feature Women. Proudly
    proudly presents . the PORTRAITS PROJECT 74 portraits hang in the halls of YLS. Only 6 feature women. This guide aims to celebrate the six remarkable alumnae whose portraits grace the walls of the Law School, to draw attention to the unequal visual representation of women, to describe the process by which portraits are created, and to highlight women whose accomplishments might merit a portrait. We hope this resource inspires interested students and alumni to change the disparate visual representation that currently persists in the halls of YLS. THE WOMEN IN THE PORTRAITS Carolyn Agger (LL.B. 1938) Portrait Painted in 1949; Located in the Alumni Reading Room. Carolyn Agger was an influential tax lawyer in Washington, D.C. at a time when extremely few women were lawyers. She graduated from Barnard College in 1931 and earned a master’s degree in economics from the University of Wisconsin in 1932 before starting her career in Washington at various New Deal agencies. Agger attended Yale Law School at the suggestion of her husband, Supreme Court Justice Abe Fortas, who was a professor there. After graduating from Yale Law School in 1938, Agger worked in government at the National Labor Relations Board, the Senate subcommittee on education and labor, and the tax division of the Justice Department, as well as in private practice at Lord, Day & Lord. She later became a partner and one of the top tax lawyers in D.C. at Paul, Weiss, Rifkind, Wharton & Garrison. In 1960, Agger led an exodus of attorneys from Paul, Weiss to Arnold, Fortas & Porter, where she was a senior partner and head of the tax practice.
