Hey, Politico --
I consider myself to have "long-term standing in the private legal community" and I have been willing to speak out almost every single day. And, I'm not alone.
Yes, there is widespread cowardice among law firms, but don't ignore those refusing to bow down.

In the past four weeks, Costco, which has embraced DEI initiatives, GAINED 7 million shoppers…
Target, which got rid of DEI, LOST 5 million shoppers!
That’s the power we have as consumers.

It was Republican Congressman Dan Newhouse who introduced the censure resolution of @algreen.house.gov today.
Funny how Newhouse didn't have any of that energy for the repeated outbursts, interruptions, and "incivility" of Marjorie Taylor Greene and Lauren Boebert in 2022, 2023, and 2024.
