“If you’re an AG you have to make sure your team is solid,” said James Tierney, the former attorney general of Maine. “If Trump wins, there will be chaos,” he said. POLITICO: Democratic lawyers get ready: ‘If Trump wins, there will be chaos’ politico.com/news/2024/07/0…
No other state gives its attorney general the power to take control of a local police department, said James E. Tierney. "It’s a very dramatic thing to do." nytimes.com/2023/05/30/nyr…
This is going to be a big change in the way multistate cases work, because Tom Miller was the first stop. Every corporation comes to Des Moines to find out how serious an issue is. Now there’s no one to talk to, with the balkanization of the American political structure.
When #TomMiller became attorney general of #Iowa back in the 1970s, the office was relatively sleepy. As Miller leaves office at the end of a 40-year career, that’s all changed. governing.com/now/tom-miller…
As @AGIowa, Tom Miller became a significant national legal figure. Iowa under @Miller4IA's leadership punched way, way over its weight. news.bloomberglaw.com/us-law-week/lo…
Iowa punched way, way over its weight. news.bloomberglaw.com/us-law-week/lo…
AG races are particularly important now, when SCOTUS decisions are rapidly changing the legal landscape of the US. “Who your AG is, is going to significantly impact the lives of the people…. They may not know it, but it will.” wbez.org/stories/illino…
The AGs are going to lose the pro-robocall vote, but I think they are willing to take the risk. pewtrusts.org/en/research-an…
It’s not clear how many county attorneys and district attorneys will decide to enforce or fight their state abortion policies. But that leads to an uncertain legal landscape. We’re talking real chaos here. khn.org/news/article/a…
"They have huge discretion," Tierney said. "Every day, district attorneys, assistant district attorneys, assistant attorneys general decide to not enforce a law. That is why we choose them.” wusa9.com/article/news/v…
The very businesses operating in a national marketplace who rejoice today at the defeat of the EPA will soon find their futures in the hands of state officials and their state constitutions in Sacramento and Burlington. (3/3)
Regulators from states from California to Massachusetts and Vermont will not sit back and do nothing as our planet disintegrates. Rather they will consider this decision a green light to generate unpreempted regulations of greenhouse gas emissions. (2/3)
Today’s decision by the U.S. Supreme Court limiting the authority of the EPA to combat greenhouse emissions once again betrays a lack of understanding by the Court and those supportive of it of the actual operations of state government. (1/3)
“If the Supreme Court chooses to return abortion laws to the states, says former Maine AG James Tierney, it ‘just shows that the Supreme Court really doesn’t have a clue how states work.’” cnn.com/videos/us/2022…
"It’s not clear that Musk’s demands are anything more than a fishing expedition…. The same goes for Paxton’s requests: 'Consumer laws exist to protect consumers from real harm.'" Tierney told DealBook. nytimes.com/2022/06/07/bus…
"I don’t know how you can sue any more often than they already doing … but will it actually affect the people of Kansas? Probably not." How far will Kansas go to fight Biden? union-bulletin.com/how-far-will-k…
If Roe is overturned, “we're going to go through a phase of uncontrolled litigation filed by district attorneys and attorneys general around the country in an unpredictable fashion,” Mr. Tierney said. wsj.com/articles/state…
”He said while lawyers in an AG’s office might know they can’t bring a lawsuit without standing, they might feel pressure from political actors in the state government to bring suit. ”‚We’re talking Clarence Thomas to Elena Kagan, all lined up singing ‘Kumbaya,’’ Tierney said.”

It is something that bothered President Trump a great deal. I have no doubt it will bother President Biden a great deal. One judge can shut down the whole country. GOP eyes the playbook California used to stymie Trump latimes.com/politics/story…
CGTN's Elaine Reyes speaks with James Tierney, Lecturer in Law at Harvard Law School and Former Attorney General of Maine, about what we've learned about the chaos at the U.S. Capitol in the week since it happened. James Tierney on U.S. Capitol chaos youtube.com/watch?v=kY5l3u…
