WASHINGTON — In a significant legal move, a prominent Washington law firm has initiated a lawsuit aimed at blocking an executive order from the President that jeopardizes its federal contracts and the security clearances of its staff.
The firm asserts that the executive order violates constitutional principles and expresses confidence in a swift legal victory. This order is part of a series of recent White House actions intended to penalize parts of the legal community.
The firm emphasized its commitment to resisting “unconstitutional government coercion,” hinting at a recent agreement made between the White House and another law firm that faced similar targeting.
