History will remember the lawyers who engineered or defended the Trump Administration’s attacks on civil rights, immigrants, workers’ rights, the climate, and democracy itself.
In the meantime, these lawyers think they can launder their reputation with a cushy job in BigLaw or a fancy academic post—and their law firms don’t think their reputations or bottom line will take a hit. But we’re going to show the legal profession that there are consequences for hiring Trump’s legal architects and profiting off of the Administration’s heinous misdeeds.
Read and sign our open letter to let law firms and law schools know how many of us are watching. And law students, take our pledge that you will not interview with or work for law firms that continue to undermine our democracy.
