Excerpt:  “Plaintiffs Rebecca Kelly Slaughter and Alvaro M. Bedoya are Commissioners of the Federal Trade Commission. Last week, President Donald Trump purported to fire them, in direct violation of a century of federal law and Supreme Court precedent. Plaintiffs will not and do not accept this unlawful action: Plaintiffs bring this action to vindicate their right to serve the remainder of their respective terms, to defend the integrity of the Commission, and to continue their work for the American people.”
