Two law firms on March 28 sued President Donald Trump over orders that directed the revocation of their security clearances.

Jenner & Block LLP and Wilmer Cutler Pickering Hale and Dorr LLP, or WilmerHale, said Trump’s orders revoking their clearances and directing officials to terminate contracts the firms have with the federal government are unconstitutional.
