An appointed highly qualified lawyer at the same level of the Attorney General and the Solicitor General of the United States. The Defender General works at the executive policy level, advising on laws and litigation strategy, and represents the interests of those subject to the criminal laws of states and the federal government.

Why we need a defender general: Given the inequitable intake of Black people into the criminal justice system because of the hyper criminalizing laws (drug laws, RICO) and police behavior, the lack of expert counsel at all levels will continue our apartheid justice system.
