Schuyler County has officially proclaimed May 1 as Law Day, highlighting its commitment to fairness, freedom, and equal justice, according to County Attorney Steven Getman. Officials urged residents to reflect on civic engagement and public service.
This marks the 67th Law Day since President Eisenhower established it in 1958 to promote the rule of law. Each year, the American Bar Association selects a unique theme to inspire nationwide observance.
County legislators hope the day encourages community involvement and a deeper appreciation for the legal principles that protect everyone.
