"Trump drops order against law firm after it pledges $40 million in legal services

President Donald Trump agreed to withdraw an executive order targeting law firm Paul Weiss' contracts and employee security clearances in exchange for a series of commitments from the firm, including dedicating $40 million of free legal services to 'mutually agreed projects,' Trump announced.

The March 14 executive order commanded agency heads to suspend security clearances for the firm's lawyers and threatened to snatch away government contracts for firm clients.

(. . .)

'Paul, Weiss affirms its commitment to merit-based hiring, promotion, and retention, and will not adopt, use, or pursue any DEI policies,' according to Trump's announcement. 'As part of its commitment, it will engage experts, to be mutually agreed upon within 14 days, to conduct a comprehensive audit of all of its employment practices.'"

Thomas Jefferson described Paul, Weiss perfectly: "timid men who prefer the calm of despotism to the tempestuous sea of liberty."
