He has engaged in significant Administrative Procedures Act challenges against states and the federal government at the district courts and Circuit courts, winning unanimous decisions.
Robby is a passionate election and constitutional law lawyer, having zealously and successfully represented citizens and citizen groups across the country wherever their government has tried to take away their rights to referendum, free speech, free association, and more. Recently, Robby has been involved in the fight against foreign ownership of crucial infrastructure projects, working to protect national security and the environment, and has testified to Congress on these issues.
