 I'm Linda Klein, chair of ABA Day 2014. Please join us in Washington, D.C. April 8-10 when lawyers from every state walk the halls of Congress meeting with their representatives. ABA Day is the preeminent opportunity for the organized bar to speak with one voice on issues of importance to all lawyers. This year, we will strongly support funding for the Legal Services Corporation so it can continue to protect our nation's most vulnerable. We will also educate lawmakers about an unfair proposal that would require law firms to pay taxes on money they haven't yet received. You don't have to be a lobbyist to be a success at ABA Day. We'll have everything you need to make a difference, and it's fun. ABA Day is more than advocacy. It's a time to build relationships that will serve you and your clients for years to come. It's also a time to come together to celebrate those who champion our cause, both our advocates and the members of Congress who go above and beyond in support of the things we care about most. We thank McDermott-Willan Emery, who are hosting our Grassroots Advocacy Awards, recognizing champions for criminal justice, military families, and the judiciary. This year's recipients are Professor Stephen Salzburg of Washington, D.C., Mark Sullivan of Raleigh, North Carolina, and the Benchen Bar of the State of South Dakota. And you won't want to miss the Justice Awards dinner at the U.S. Institute of Peace. We'll be honoring Senator Kirsten Gillibrand of New York, Senator Rob Portman of Ohio, Representative Blaine Lukmeyer of Missouri, and Representative Mike Quigley of Illinois. Registration is easy and it's free until March 10. Go to ambar.org slash abaday. I look forward to seeing you this spring.
