A network of thousands of lawyers will offer free legal support after recent and “unprecedented” levels of concern from federal employees on their legal rights.

Federal employees who were recently fired from their jobs by the Trump administration have a new place to turn for pro-bono legal advice.

A coalition of good government organizations and federal unions has launched an initiative called “Rise Up,” a network of thousands of lawyers who will offer free legal support to employees impacted by the Trump administration’s recent actions to overhaul the federal workforce.

The project is led by Democracy Forward, AFL-CIO and We The Action, and has the backing of multiple federal unions and long-time good government organizations, such as the Partnership for Public Service.
