This important resolution reaffirms support for military spouse attorneys and addresses the inequities created by differing military spouse reciprocity rules across state bars. This is a vital step toward ensuring that military spouse attorneys can continue their careers while supporting their families. We stand behind their efforts to promote fairness and equal opportunities for all legal professionals.
