Luis P. Sanchez, a Moorpark attorney with offices in Thousand Oaks, has announced the formation of the Madison-Lincoln Initiative, a pending not-for-profit organization whose purpose is to help preserve the nations democratic republic by providing workshops throughout the education community on the history, purpose and basic structure of the U.S. Constitution, and on how to foster civil discourse and civic engagement among our youth.

Sanchez holds a juris doctorate and a masters degree in business and tax law from the University of the Pacific, McGeorge School of Law. He has more than 20 years of legal experience and has taught in law classrooms for more than 20 years.

Sanchez will present a discussion on pertinent legal topics at any high school or college in America, in person or by Zoom, without cost wherever six or more students or faculty are willing to assemble for a 90-minute workshop.

He was twice honored as Outstanding Instructor of the Year by students at Sierra College, and has written two textbook supplements on California business law. His Madison-Lincoln Initiative is named after James Madison, the fourth U.S. president and chief architect of the Constitution, and Abraham Lincoln, the 16th president whose leadership during the Civil War culminated in the adoption of the Thirteenth, Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments to purge slavery from the Constitution.

Sanchez says he started his not-for-profit organization because of his concern that the American republic may not survive the bitter partisan differences that threaten to divide the country, unless, he says, we re-learn how to engage in respectful discourse with our fellow citizens and deepen our understanding of and commitment to the U.S. Constitution the supreme pact to which we are all pledged.

Sanchez also is offering to help interested students form their own Madison Lincoln Club to promote civic engagement and civil discourseacross partisan and ideological linesat their campus. Students and educators who are interested in having attorney Sanchez speak at their class or elsewhere at school, or if they would like to see a video synopsis of his presentation, email him at lpsanchezlaw@gmail.com or call him at (805) 770-1477.
