OA1167 - Georgetown law student Mari Latibashvili is the co-founder of the GU Law Coalition for Justice, which recently made national headlines by organizing law students to refuse interviews and job offers from law firms which have given in to the Trump administration’s war on the legal profession. We discuss (among other things) this remarkably successful campaign, what life in law school has been like since the November 2024 election, and the growing influence of abolitionism among law students and new lawyers.

  • Spreadsheet assembled by Georgetown Coalition of Students for Justice cataloging hundreds of law firms and their responses to the Trump administration’s executive orders targeting specific law firms

  • “Law students organize to give Trump-caving law firms a recruitment problem,” Adam Klasfeld, All Rise News (4/25/2025)

  • Amicus brief filed by 1,129 law students in the Susman Godfrey litigation against the Trump administration
