Summary
President Donald Trump issued Executive Order 14250 on March 27, 2025, targeting the law firm WilmerHale for activities deemed detrimental to American interests, such as undermining national security and election integrity. The order mandates a review and potential suspension of security clearances for WilmerHale employees, restricts federal contracts with the firm, and limits their access to government facilities and interactions with federal employees. This action may have significant legal and political implications, as it challenges the firm's operations and could set a precedent for how law firms are scrutinized based on their political and legal activities.
