LETTER from the PRESIDENT

Dear Friends,

Landmark Legal Foundation is presently engaged in a two front battle – the most ambitious and arguably the most important we’ve ever faced. It is quite literally a battle for America's future.

We’re confronting the nation’s chief obstacle to substantive education reform - the NEA - not only at the national level, but in the states where the union spends millions in tax exempt funds on unreported and hence illegal political activities. In the coming months we will launch the first wave of complaints against key NEA state affiliates. In addition, the Foundation will undertake a major outreach initiative to regional, national and specialty media and key opinion leaders to garner attention and caste the spectrum of public debate where it belongs – on the...

Public Accountability

Latest Developments

The Left has no end of ways to demonize people who oppose unelected judges reaching into and ruling on every aspect of modern life. There are no limits to the vitriol they will heap on people who think judges shouldn’t rely on foreign law and fabricated “rights” found no where in the Constitution to advance an extremist social agenda.

A decade of rejection at the ballot box has led liberals to turn to the courts to implement their policy goals, regardless of the will of the people or the parameters on the authority of the judiciary established by the Framers of the Constitution.

In addition, a minority of U.S. senators who support these judicial abuses have attempted—and will again—to stop the Senate from performing its constitutional function of giving an up or down vote on judicial nominees with unprecedented filibusters. This is a clear abrogation of the...

NEA Accountability Project

Latest Developments

The education of America’s children is one of the most important tasks any generation faces. That task is complicated significantly by the stranglehold the National Education Association has on America’s educational infrastructure. From local school boards to Congress and the White House, the NEA spends uncounted millions in tax-exempt teachers’ dues to elect officials who will write into law the union’s extremist political and social agenda.

No organization has been more resolute and effective in breaking down the barriers to educational opportunity and competition than Landmark. And we’ve been doing it for almost 30 years.

In the last decade, Landmark has been relentless in uncovering the NEA’s unreported political expenditures and taking it to task for violations of federal tax, election and labor laws. Now, with Phase II of our NEA Accountability Project...

Environmental Accountability

Latest Developments

If you want to know what the Environmental Protection Agency is doing on any given environmental issue, you can file a Freedom of Information Act request with the agency for whatever it may have in its files about your particular subject of interest. Moreover, you have a pretty good chance of actually getting the information you requested if it exists in the agency's files. That wasn't always the case.

At Landmark's instigation in 2003, Federal District Judge Royce Lamberth held the EPA in contempt for destroying files in a FOIA case Landmark had filed against the agency over last minute regulations promulgated in the final days of the previous administration. That suit also resulted in the agency completely revamping its procedures for responding to FOIA requests as well as collecting and preserving possibly responsive information to such requests.
