People for the American Way The Misrepresentations of Boyden Gray and the Committee for JusticeIn July of 2002, C. Boyden Gray established the Committee for Justice “to offset the influence of People For the American Way” and to lobby on behalf of President George W. Bush’s judicial nominations. One year later... two conclusions can be drawn. First, as he does for the other corporate front that he co-chairs, Citizens for a Sound Economy, Mr. Gray is working hard for all the corporate special interests that he represents....The second conclusion is that in his TV ads and in his public statements, Mr. Gray and the Committee for Justice make one misrepresentation after another.
