Lawfare hasn’t stopped since Donald Trump became president again, but has been repackaged into civil litigation to stop his second term agenda—and most of the civil lawfare can be traced to groups affiliated with a coalition known as Civil Service Strong.
Members of the coalition scored federal court wins in recent days to temporarily block Trump’s executive order on birthright citizenship, to delay a federal employee buyout, and to halt the shuttering of the U.S. Agency for International Development.
The member groups have also been involved in numerous other lawsuits against the Trump administration, including challenging the Schedule F executive order on civil service protections; a suit to block the White House’s Department of Government Efficiency initiative from accessing information; and a lawsuit to prevent disclosure of FBI information.

Civil Service Strong is a project of Democracy Forward, where leading Democrat lawyer Marc Elias is chairman of the board. Elias has been known primarily for election-related litigation and for his role in initiating the discredited Russia collusion investigation during President Donald Trump’s first term. Democracy Forward, in a post on X, boasted of filing nine lawsuits against the Trump administration and winning four court orders.
The groups joining Democracy Forward in Civil Service Strong are two federal unions (the American Federation of Government Employees and the National Federation of Federal Employees); two nonfederal unions (the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees and the American Federation of Teachers); three political lawfare groups (Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington, which sued to block Trump from being on the 2024 ballot; the State Democracy Defenders Fund; and Protect Democracy), and two whistleblower-protection groups (the Government Accountability Project and the Project on Government Oversight).
