The Feldman Firm, LLC is celebrating #GivingTuesday and the holiday season by once again making contributions to three charitable organizations. This year, the Firm has made donations to Sara’s Smiles Foundation, the Montgomery Bar Foundation, and the National Greyhound Adoption Program.
Sara’s Smiles (www.saras-smiles.org), based in Meadowbrook, Pennsylvania, honors the memory of Sara Kate Burke, Jeff Feldman’s niece, by brightening the spirits of pediatric cancer patients in hospitals and care facilities around the country. The Montgomery Bar Foundation (www.montgomerybarfoundation.org) is the charitable affiliate of the Montgomery Bar Association; it supports law-related educational, charitable, and humanitarian projects throughout Montgomery County, PA. NGAP (www.ngap.org), based in Philadelphia, PA, helps find adoptive homes for former racing greyhounds, including the Firm’s very own official mascot, Sundae.
We wish everyone a meaningful #GivingTuesday and a peaceful and joyous holiday season.
The Feldman Firm, LLC is proud to support the Upper Dublin Soccer Club, and congratulates the Club on the conclusion of another successful recreational soccer program.
The Firm was a team jersey sponsor for several Club teams this year in the rec program, including Team 1003, which took second place in its age group after being undefeated throughout the regular season. Congratulations to Coach Milrod and the team.
The Feldman Firm, LLC is proud to serve as local counsel to the U.S. Women’s Chamber of Commerce (www.uswcc.org) and the National Association for Female Executives (www.nafe.com) in their capacities as Amici Curiae in Commonwealth of Pennsylvania v. Trump, et al., a federal lawsuit brought by the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and the State of New Jersey seeking to block proposed Trump administration rules that would allow employers to opt out of providing health insurance coverage for contraception if they oppose its use on moral or religious grounds.
On July 12, 2019, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit issued a judgment and a precedential opinion affirming the nationwide preliminary injunction blocking the proposed new rules that was entered by U.S. District Judge Wendy Beetlestone of the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania. As a result of this successful appellate defense of the trial court’s injunction, the contraceptive mandate in the Affordable Care Act remains unchanged.
On March 25, 2019, The Feldman Firm, LLC, along with Dentons US LLP, which serves as primary counsel for USWCC and NAFE in litigation involving the contraceptive mandate of the Affordable Care Act, filed a federal Appellate Amici Brief in support of Pennsylvania’s and New Jersey’s response to the defendants’ appeal.
The Feldman Firm, LLC is thankful for the opportunity to continue to assist the USWCC, NAFE, and Dentons in this important and impactful public policy litigation.
