Republican attorneys general set their sights on checking Joe Biden and Kamala Harris over next four years
[WashingtonExaminer] A little-celebrated victory was overlooked by the press in last month’s election results when Republicans held onto their 26-member majority in state attorneys general offices across the country."We kept all five incumbent seats, despite the fact that, in October, Democrats were claiming they were going to take up at least three seats," said Adam Piper, the executive director of the Republican Attorneys General Association in an interview with the Washington Examiner. A state attorney general is that state’s top lawyer. Their responsibilities are broad, from investigating criminal operations, protecting seniors from scams, monitoring larger mergers that may overstep anti-trust laws, as well as investigating public corruption, and defending a state if it is sued.
