A conservative legal advocacy group filed a formal bar complaint this week against New York County Democratic District Attorney Alvin Bragg, alleging racially discriminatory hiring practices. America First Legal Vice President Dan Epstein told Fox News Digital Bragg’s official website clearly indicates his office is encouraging hiring practices that prefer applicants from certain backgrounds.
Epstein also pointed out it is not unprecedented to see a high-profile attorney be disbarred for valid reasons, as Hunter Biden was in Washington, D.C., after his gun violation conviction. He said the process in New York state falls to district grievance review boards. Bragg falls under the First Judicial District, which covers Bronx County and New York County.
Epstein also rejected criticism that America First Legal is 'targeting' Bragg, who has been maligned by many conservatives over his prosecution of former President Trump. Instead, Epstein said, America First Legal is 'on the lookout' overall as a watchdog for evidence of discrimination in any government prosecutor’s office. America First Legal was founded in 2021 by Stephen Miller, a former Trump speechwriter who previously served as a top aide to Sen. Jeff Sessions, R-Ala.
