Are you sure? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_Bar_Association#Accreditation_of_U.S._law_schools_since_1923 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_Bar_Association#Accre... states:
Specifically, in most U.S. jurisdictions, graduation from an ABA-accredited law school is prerequisite towards being allowed to sit for that state's bar exam, and even for existing lawyers to be admitted to the bar of another state upon motion.
- blamestross 5y agoThat isn't the ABA's fault and doesn't mandate them to 1st amendment protection. Go complain to the states in question for making participation in a private organization mandatory.
- car_analogy 5y agoThat makes it a 1st amendment issue, regardless of who is ultimately at fault. Which I never claimed to be the ABA - though they are well aware of their legal power, so they can hardly plead innocent for abusing it.
