President Donald Trump has issued executive orders against several prominent law firms, suspending employees’ security clearances and reviewing federal contracts with the firms.
Trump has issued four executive orders and one memo citing “significant risks associated with law firms, particularly so-called ‘Big Law’ firms, that engage in conduct detrimental to critical American interests,” according to the administration’s March 25 order targeting Jenner & Block LLP. The administration says that such firms engage in “conduct detrimental to critical American interests.”
