CNBC: "Absurd!" Judge blasts Trump executive order targeting top law firm. Strikes it down!
CBS NEWS: Federal judge calls Trump executive order "unconstitutional."
REUTERS: This is the third Trump order against law firms tossed by the courts in a month.
Back in March, when Trump tried to bully major law firms into firing attorneys who opposed him, PCCC members leapt into action. Thousands of us called and emailed executives at top firms with a simple message: Stand up. Don’t cave.
This week’s ruling – the third in 30 days – is clear proof that the firms that caved made a costly mistake. Their retreat has already left nonprofits, community groups, and everyday people scrambling to find legal help when Trump’s agenda lands on their doorstep.
The firms that fought back were right – and we were right to pressure them to fight.
This isn’t over. Trump is widening his assault:
- Colleges & universities. He’s freezing billions in grants and visas to force elite schools like Harvard to yield to political control.
- Non‑profits. H.R. 9495 – the so‑called "Nonprofit Killer" bill – would let Trump strip any charity’s tax‑exempt status with no evidence or due process.
- Independent media & watchdogs. Journalists and public‑interest groups report retaliatory lawsuits and accreditation threats aimed at silencing critical coverage.
How the PCCC turns grassroots power into real‑world wins:
- Inside–outside organizing. Whenever possible, we combine grassroots pressure from the outside with allies on the inside of key institutions – a one‑two punch that drives change.
- We keep the heat on. Sustained pressure pushes firms like WilmerHale to take Trump to court instead of surrendering.
- When Trump loses, we broadcast the victory – giving courage to the next institution under fire.
