Applaud the Courts for Stopping Trump’s Attacks on Law Firms

For the fourth time, a federal judge has permanently blocked one of Donald Trump’s unconstitutional executive orders targeting elite law firms. The latest ruling, handed down by U.S. District Judge Loren AliKhan, struck down the Trump order against Susman Godfrey, calling it “unconstitutional from beginning to end.”

This is part of a deeply troubling pattern: Trump’s administration has tried to punish major law firms simply for representing clients he doesn’t like or for employing attorneys he disagrees with. These actions are a direct threat to legal independence and to every American’s right to legal representation.

But thanks to the courage of law firms who fought back and the integrity of the judiciary, these orders have now been struck down in four separate cases. Judges appointed by both parties have delivered resounding rebukes, upholding the Constitution and protecting the independence of the legal profession.

Add your name to applaud the lawyers, judges, and advocates defending the rule of law — and to say loud and clear: no president is above the Constitution.
