There are allegations that the Perkins and Coie firm abused their access to a SCIF in order to make unauthorised queries targeting Trump campaign members during the run up to the 2016 election. The full text of the executive order is available here: https://www.whitehouse.gov/presidential-actions/2025/03/addressing-risks-from-perkins-coie-llp/ https://www.whitehouse.gov/presidential-actions/2025/03/addr... and mentions removing access to a SCIF: > The Office of Management and Budget shall identify all Government goods, property, material, and services, including Sensitive Compartmented Information Facilities, provided for the benefit of Perkins Coie. The heads of all agencies providing such material or services shall, to the extent permitted by law, expeditiously cease such provision. It has also been publicly documented from court transcripts that contractors were making unauthorised queries but I don't believe it has ever been released who the contractors were or who they were targeting. Hopefully, if this is the reason for removing SCIF access the current government is able to make these documents public without redaction. Though, the whole thing could just be a conspiracy theory generated by people piecing together bits of random information.
