“Lawyers holding public office assume legal responsibilities going beyond those of other citizens. A lawyer’s abuse of public office can suggest an inability to fulfill the professional role of lawyers.”

That’s from Rule 8.4 — “Maintaining The Integrity Of The Profession” — of the American Bar Association’s Model Rules of Professional Conduct for lawyers.

William Barr, Donald Trump’s attorney general, has abused — disgraced — that office.

Egregiously.

Repeatedly.

Attorney General William Barr must resign.

Add your name if you agree.

Thanks for taking action.

Stay safe.

- Robert Weissman, President of Public Citizen
