Yale Law Federalist Society

Founded in 1982 as the flagship chapter of The Federalist Society, Yale FedSoc is a group of conservative, libertarian, and moderate law students committed to preserving the mainstays of American government: federalism, the separation of powers, and judicial fidelity to the text of the Constitution. Over 25 years later, the Yale Federalist Society is still one of the nation’s strongest Federalist Society Student Chapters, as well as one of the most active student groups at Yale Law School. We are, above all, committed to encouraging open and honest debate on the fundamental legal issues of our day; to that end, we seek to bring expositors of conservative views (often underpresented at Yale) to the law school to speak and debate important legal questions. Welcome to the Yale Law Federalist Society.
