💨 Abstract

Democratic lawmakers have sent letters to nine elite law firms questioning potential violations of federal bribery, extortion, fraud, or racketeering laws. The firms agreed to provide pro bono work to the Trump administration in exchange for the reversal of executive orders or to avoid targeting. The deals also involve the firms committing to merit-based hiring and not denying representation based on political views.
