A3P Statement on Harmeet Dhillon's Confirmation as Assistant Attorney General for Civil Rights

WASHINGTON – Mike Davis, founder and president of the Article III Project, issued the following statement after the Senate confirmed Harmeet Dhillon as the Assistant Attorney General for Civil Rights.

“Harmeet Dhillon is an outstanding attorney, principled champion for justice, and a good friend and ally. She will bring her strong leadership and much-needed reforms to the Justice Department’s Civil Rights Division—the epicenter of weaponization. Instead of persecuting pro-life Christians, Harmeet Dhillon will ensure we protect the most vulnerable among us.” said Davis.

The Article III Project (A3P) was founded by veteran GOP operative and attorney Mike Davis, who, after helping win the Senate confirmation battles of Neil Gorsuch and Brett Kavanaugh, developed the reputation as a “take-no-prisoners conservative eager to challenge the left with hardball tactics,” as reported in The New York Times.‍‍

‍A3P defends constitutionalist judges, punches back on radical assaults on judicial independence (like court-packing) and opposes judicial and other nominees who are outside of the mainstream. Davis previously served as Chief Counsel for Nominations to Chairman Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) on the United States Senate Committee on the Judiciary and led the Senate confirmation of Justice Brett Kavanaugh and a record number of circuit court judges.
