Commencement Livestream
Former U.S. Solicitor General Paul Clement has argued over 100 cases before the Supreme Court, more than any other lawyer since 2000, including pro bono defense of the Little Sisters of the Poor and successful vindication of high school football coach Joseph Kennedy’s right to pray on the field last year.
A former clerk under Justice Antonin Scalia, Clement served as U.S. Solicitor General from 2005 to 2008 under President George W. Bush. He has argued 112 cases before the U.S. Supreme Court, often involving major issues of religious freedom. Clement’s record of success includes Hobby Lobby v. Burwell, which clarified that the government cannot require closely held religious businesses to facilitate access to contraception.
