Judge Strikes Down President Trump’s Executive Order Targeting Perkins Coie
WASHINGTON — Judge Beryl Howell in the U.S. District Court for District Columbia struck down President Trump’s unconstitutional Executive Order attacking Perkins Coie for their past voting rights litigation. In response to this ruling, Brian Hauss, senior staff attorney with the ³Ô¹ÏÖ±²¥, issued the following statement: “Last night, Perkins Coie won summary judgment against the Trump administration’s illegal executive order against the firm. As the court recognized, this ‘unprecedented’ attack on the rule of law, and every American’s right to counsel, cannot stand. It remains an outrage that President Trump has sought to intimidate lawyers from doing exactly what their job entails—zealously advocating for their clients, regardless of whether those clients are perceived enemies of the president. This win sends a vital message–the Trump administration’s thuggery can be defeated by people of courage and integrity. As the administration ramps up its assaults on the courts, the press, universities, and other institutions throughout civil society, we must all find the strength to fight for the values that make America great."
