The National FJLC Committee’s mission is to serve the interests and needs of current and former judicial law clerks by providing educational, career, and networking opportunities. To do so, the FJLC Committee provides guidance and resources to local Chapters and implements national programs. Through those efforts, the FJLC Committee aims to grow the federal judicial law clerk network and increase FBA membership, with a specific goal to support and expand existing inclusion initiatives.

The FJLC Committee co-chairs and members are current or former federal judicial law clerks active with FBA Chapters across the country. Committee members were selected from a crosscut of the larger legal community, underscoring the importance of inclusion in the federal judiciary and FBA.
