Article Profiles ACLJ and Its Leader, Jay Sekulow

Yesterday's Chicago Tribune features an article on the American Center for Law and Justice and its chief counsel Jay Sekulow. Describing ACLJ as "the conservative mirror image of the American Civil Liberties Union", it says the organization, founded by Pat Robertson, "has led the way in transforming the complaints of the religious right from raucous protests on the courthouse steps to polished presentations inside the highest courts in the land." The article describes Sekulow as: "a distinctive figure in the Christian legal fold, not just because he is a sharp legal strategist who eschews emotional or religious arguments but because he is a Brooklyn-born Jewish convert to Christianity, or a 'Messianic Jew,' as he puts it."
