Rise Up,

Fight Back.

We’re a network of lawyers helping to get workers the justice they deserve. 

Hundreds of thousands of federal workers have had their basic rights violated on the job—including tens of thousands who have been fired illegally. Federal workers have an urgent need for legal support.

Federal WORKERS

​If you've been fired from your federal government job or you're a federal worker concerned about your employment, we want to help. Federal workers are the heart of our government, ensuring that the critical services working families rely on run smoothly.

We will connect workers to free legal support through a network of pro bono attorneys.


LAWYERS

All across the country, federal workers need legal support. Join our network to help federal workers who have been illegally fired. You’ll receive training to assist workers in need of support. We’ll also provide a library of resources to help workers understand their rights and legal options.


SUPPORTERS

Share information with friends, family and colleagues, especially lawyers and federal workers. We need your help to speak up and fight back.

Donate to the Federal Workers Legal Defense Network to support our efforts to train lawyers and connect them with federal workers who need legal aid.

WHO WE ARE

WHY THIS MATTERS

Our network is already fighting back against illegal firings and other abuse of federal workers, but thousands of federal workers still need legal advice and representation. That means we need thousands of lawyers to help.

Federal workers power critical programs like Medicare and Social Security, run our national parks, inspect our food and medicine, and keep us safe from accidents and disasters. As taxpayers and Americans, we must demand justice for these workers.
