Donald Trump issued an executive order against Jenner & Block, revoking its attorneys' security clearances and reviewing its government contracts. This firm is the latest target in Trump's ongoing conflict with major law firms linked to his political adversaries. Specifically, the order calls out attorney Andrew Weissmann for his high-profile role in investigating Trump's connections to Russia. Despite the legal challenges, Jenner & Block affirmed its commitment to defending its clients' interests while pursuing legal remedies against the executive order, which mirrors previous unconstitutional actions against other firms.
"Jenner & Block has had a long history representing clients, paid and pro bono, in their most difficult matters since 1914...we remain focused on serving and safeguarding our clients' interests."
"The order described Weissmann's career as 'rooted in weaponized government and abuse of power.'"
