Summary
Georgetown Law students launched a viral spreadsheet, the “Legal Industry Responses to Fascist Attacks Tracker,” categorizing over 800 law firms by their stance on Trump administration actions.
Prompted by Trump’s executive orders targeting firms that opposed him, the list assigns firms to one of five classifications: “Caved to Administration,” “Complying in Advance,” “Other Negative Action,” “Stood Up Against Administration’s Attacks,” or “No Response.”
It has influenced law student recruitment, prompting firms to lobby for better designations.
Some students are declining high-paying offers from firms that “caved.” Recruiters at major firms confirm the spreadsheet is affecting hiring decisions.
I hope this happens at all levels and all industries. I’m doing my part, i just wish adobe asks me my feedback ☹️i need to release energy a bit. It will come, I’m patient…
These students rock.
And this part is hilarious:
It has influenced law student recruitment, prompting firms to lobby for better designations.
It also demonstrates how protesting can be done in various ways - and how it’s very helpful.
I’ll see you in the street, dear reader. We are many.
This is the way. Being able to hire people is one of the top things that affect company policy.
But, but… people are who are totally arguing in good faith keep telling me that there’s absolutely nothing that can be done and that it’s pointless to even try…
Impressed they haven’t tried suing yet.
They’re too scared to practice law.
Thank you!
