DONALD TRUMP, et al.,

Before the court is the Washington State Labor Council’s (“WSLC”) motion

16

seeking leave to file an amicus curiae brief in support of Plaintiffs’ motion for a

17

temporary restraining order. (Mot. (Dkt. # 75); see also TRO Mot. (Dkt. # 9).)

18

Specifically, WSLC’s amicus brief will address “the impacts of the most recent

19

Executive Order on the members of unions across a wide range of industries and the

20

irreparable harm suffered by those workers in Washington if the Executive Order is not

21

enjoined.” (Mot. at 3.) The court has stayed its consideration of Plaintiffs’ motion for a

22

temporary restraining order. (Order (Dkt. # 79).) Accordingly, although the court

ORDER - 1

1

GRANTS WSLC’s motion for leave to file an amicus brief (Dkt. # 75), the court will

2

consider WSLC’s amicus brief only if the court lifts the stay on Plaintiffs’ motion and

3

considers whether to enter a temporary restraining order.
