NCLEJ’s mission to advance racial, economic, and disability justice is more important than ever before. Over the last year, the Trump administration has weaponized the federal government against low-income and immigrant communities, law firms, universities, and nonprofits alike.
This is a moment of crisis for America, and groups like NCLEJ are holding the line to defend marginalized communities against the extreme actions and policies of this administration. To the extent that this administration has been prevented from doing anything, it’s been because legal advocates have blocked the way.
