James R. Mason becomes president of Home School Legal Defense Association
“Mason’s promotion to president follows more than 20 years as HSLDA’s lead litigation attorney and seven years as Vice President. He was responsible for key legal victories, including 4th Amendment cases that improved social services investigation protocol in North Carolina, Pennsylvania, and New Mexico. Mason also led the organization’s victory in Wilson v. Russo, where HSLDA won a $700,000 settlement for a single parent whose children were wrongfully taken into foster care by a child protective services investigator.” – HSLDA, August 1, 2022
