Addressing Risks From Paul Weiss

This executive order targets the law firm Paul, Weiss, Rifkind, Wharton & Garrison LLP by suspending security clearances for its personnel, restricting government contracts with the firm and entities doing business with it, limiting federal building access for its employees, and restricting federal hiring of its personnel. The order cites the firm's pro bono litigation related to January 6, 2021, its hiring of Mark Pomerantz, and alleged racial discrimination through DEI practices as justifications.
