I don't think anyone pays the slightest attention to the ABA these days.

I may have been a member when I was first admitted, 40 years ago, in all the excitement of the occasion, etc. but I can't remember the last time I thought about them.

The US Senate doesn't pay much attention. Eminent jurists rated "well qualified" or "qualified" are left to languish and can't get a vote on confirmation.

When you are a member, they constantly panhandle for money for this or that supposedly noble purpose, and your name appears on one of the world's most prized mailing lists, so you have that annoyance.

This report will be cited in support by those who seek repeal but places that have such a law, all of recent vintage, will not be swayed.
