Summary
Nutrition label
77% Informative
Former DOJ attorneys are joining left-wing litigation firms to pursue lawsuits against the Trump administration.
The lawsuits have slowed aspects of the administration's agenda and contributed to the administration’s escalating frustration with the judiciary.
Biden DOJ officials include former Deputy Associate Attorney General Jodie Morse , former Deputy Assistant Attorney General Brian Netter , who opposed several states pro-life laws.
Justice Connection is now starting a pro bono legal network for DOJ employees who believe they are “targeted” by employment actions or investigations.
Volunteers for the pro-bono network are themselves former DOJ employees.
Former DOJ trial attorney Clayton Bailey recently launched a new firm to represent fired federal workers.
