"Selendy Gay supports all those who courageously defend the rule of law, and we reject the notion that the government can punish lawyers for their choice of clients or threaten judges for presiding over cases adverse to the administration. We stand with the brave lawyers who will oppose any attempts by the government to intimidate members of the bar or judiciary for doing their jobs. We are proud of the great history of respect for the rule of law in this country and believe that the freedom and prosperity that have resulted from the separation of powers at the foundation of this republic are worth defending." -- Selendy Gay PLLC
