The Pacific Justice Institute (PJI) is a conservative legal defense organization based in California.[3] The group, founded by attorney Brad W. Dacus, describes itself as focusing on representation relating to "...religious freedom, parental rights, and other civil liberties." PJI was declared an anti-LGBT hate group in 2014 by the Southern Poverty Law Center due to the group's long history of anti-LGBT rhetoric through its founder.[4] The group also represents workers opposed to their employers' vaccine mandates.[5]
