A conservative group in Wisconsin has filed complaints against the American Bar Association (ABA), a federal magistrate judge in Minnesota and three law schools alleging bias in hiring programs for students. According to Bloomberg Law, the Wisconsin Institute for Law and Liberty filed the complaints with the U.S. Justice and Education departments, claiming that the programs violate federal law by targeting applicants based on race, age and sexual orientation. The law schools targeted were South Texas College, the University of the Pacific and Willamette University.
