Perkins Coie Amicus Brief

Public Knowledge joined a coalition of over 60 media organizations and press freedom advocates in signing an amicus brief in support of Perkins Coie’s motion for summary judgment, arguing that the executive order targeting the law firm undermines the legal representation necessary for a free press to function. The amici warn that the order could chill lawyers from defending journalists and media organizations, harming the press’s ability to serve the public and hold government accountable.
