“The rule of law is central to our democracy. You can’t have a democracy without the rule of law.” – Thomas A. Saenz, President and General Counsel of @maldef.
On the newest episode of the Legal Lens podcast, I am joined by attorney Thomas A. Saenz, President and General Counsel of the Mexican American Legal Defense and Educational Foundation (MALDEF), for a wide-ranging conversation about civil rights litigation and the future of voting rights in 2026.
In this clip, Attorney Saenz shares his views on how the rule of law continues to shape democracy and why this principle matters for lawyers, their clients, and everyday people.
He reminds us that without the rule of law, the promise of equal participation in democracy cannot be realized.
