Why Should I Join FALJC?
FALJC has been in the forefront on core issues of importance to the administrative law judiciary, which this past year focused on fundamental judicial challenges to the authority and independence of ALJs, and more generally on the crucial role of administrative agencies in the federal government.
FALJC keeps track of items of importance to our members, including judicial proceedings, legislative activity, ALJ job openings, and agency-specific news and information. As a FALJC member you will receive news announcements, full access to our website, and invitations to our monthly online meetings. Members also have the opportunity to attend our Annual Seminar at reduced member rates. The Annual Seminar, held in a different location each year, offers a specialized program of topics that are of particular interest to federal ALJs, and provides members a chance to meet and socialize with colleagues from all over the United States.
As a member of FALJC, you may join the ABA Judicial Division and the National Conference of the Administrative Law Judiciary (NCALJ) for significantly reduced annual dues.
The resources for our efforts can only come from you. Membership in FALJC is limited to current federal Administrative Law Judges duly appointed under 5 U.S.C. Section 3105. Retired federal ALJs are also invited to join FALJC. If you have not already, please consider joining FALJC today.
