Draft:Lex Rex Institute

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Lex Rex Institute (LRI) is a U.S.-based 501(c)(3) constitutional advocacy organization founded in 2021 and based in Long Beach, California. Its mission is to ensure constitutional governance by educating the public and holding public officials accountable to their duties. Grounded in natural law principles and originalist interpretations of the U.S. Constitution, LRI seeks to protect individual liberties and limit government overreach through litigation, education, and policy advocacy.[1]

LRI focuses on a wide range of constitutional issues, including free speech, election law, separation of powers, parental rights, and bodily autonomy. It has represented high-profile clients such as Dr. John Eastman[2], Congressmen Matt Gaetz and Marjorie Taylor Greene[3], Kari Lake, and Young America's Foundation[4]. LRI has worked alongside notable organizations like the Claremont Institute's Constitutional Counsel Group[5], the Public Interest Legal Foundation[6], the Mountain States Legal Foundation[7], and Michel & Associates, a law firm focused on Second Amendment advocacy.[8]

During the COVID-19 pandemic, LRI also had a success rate in excess of 90% in defending individuals faced with termination for refusing to comply with COVID-19 vaccine mandates.[9] The organization also represents Jaiden Rodriguez, a Colorado elementary school student who was punished for wearing a backpack with the Gadsden flag on it.[10] LRI is led by its President, Alexander Haberbush.[11]
