President Donald Trump orders agencies to suspend security clearances and access to federal buildings of lawyers for the law firm Wilmer Hale .

The order is the fifth restricting a major Washington law firm's ability to do business with the federal government.

The White House has made clear these firms are being punished because of their partners’ or clients’ political work and ties to criminal investigations.
