In celebration of National Law Day, Gerrie Schipske, candidate for City Attorney, will host a booth at the Sunday, May 1 Farmers’ Market located at Spring Street and Clark Avenue from 9 am until 12 noon.
May 1, 2022, is the annual national Law Day established in 1958
by President Eisenhower to celebrate the rule of law.
Law Day provides an opportunity to understand how law and the legal process
protect our liberty, strive to achieve justice, and contribute to the freedoms
that all Americans share.
Residents are invited to stop by Schipske’s Farmers’ Market
booth and get a “Law Day” comic book and a chance to win their very own Ruth
Bader Ginsburg “action figure.”
“United States Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader
Ginsburg officiated at my swearing into the United States Supreme Court Bar,”
said Schipske. “I particularly admired her strength and love of law and think
‘Law Day’ is a perfect time to celebrate her contributions to the rule of law.”
Gerrie Schipske is running for City Attorney to
establish the strongest “Anti-Corruption” effort to root out unethical
or illegal conduct by City elected officials, employees, and those who contract
with the City.
“I took an oath that as ‘an attorney and as a
counselor of the Court, that I will conduct myself uprightly and according to
law, and that I will support the Constitution of the United States,’ “says
Schipske. “I expect all public employees and elected officials of Long Beach to
conduct
themselves ‘uprightly and according to law.’ Corruption erodes the public’s
trust.”
Schipske says that she will also be providing information on
her “Long Beach Open Government Bill of Rights” which inform voters about their
legal rights to an open, transparent, accountable, and not to mention, ethical
City government.
