Rescue The Fosters: ACCESS FOR ADVOCATES HR5647 - w/ Connie Reguli & Rachel Bruno

Connie Reguli could have never imagined her path to activism.

It began when she decided to pursue a second career in law, attending night school while juggling two other jobs. Earning her law license at the age of 42 meant she brought a wealth of life experiences with her into the courtroom. Her legal career led her to focus on child welfare and domestic litigation, where she witnessed mistreatment of litigants and corruption among judges as early as 2002. In 2008, she took the initiative to educate state legislators about the process for removing judges. Since then, she has been relentless in her efforts, fighting against child protective services to defend parents' rights. In 2019, however, a corrupt prosecutor, detective, and state's attorney falsely charged her and her client with crimes. A biased judge allowed the charges to proceed, turning Reguli and her client into felons. It took two years to overturn these felonies and have the charges dismissed.

Through social media, Reguli has established an advocacy platform called the Family Forward Project, which has over 19,000 members. She actively lobbies in Washington and continues to champion the rights of families.
