Disbar racist lawyer (sign the petition)

Sign the petition demanding Aaron Schlossberg be disbarred. His unethical and dangerous conduct makes it clear that he is not fit to be a credentialed lawyer.

Dear MoveOn member,

I'm Ronen Kauffman, a fellow MoveOn member, and I started a petition after seeing some absolutely despicable video footage of a racist and xenophobic lawyer in New York City cursing at, threatening, and otherwise berating members of the public on multiple occasions.¹

Sign the petition demanding the New York State Unified Court System investigate and disbar Aaron Schollberg for his unprofessional, unethical conduct.

Aaron Schlossberg was caught on camera multiple times making hateful, racist comments to complete strangers. His unethical and dangerous conduct makes it clear that he is not fit to be a credentialed lawyer. He must be investigated and disbarred.

Schlossberg is on camera yelling at women for speaking Spanish and says that they should be "kicked out of my country." Another video shows him yelling at a couple on the street, "I'm a citizen here. You're not. You're an ugly, f***ing foreigner, so f**k you!"²

It should come as no surprise that Schlossberg donated hundreds of dollars to the Trump campaign and is now apparently one of the many bigots emboldened by the administration's racist and xenophobic agenda.³

Sign my petition now to demand a full investigation into Schlossberg's racist and xenophobic history and for him to be disbarred, so that he can no longer practice law.

Thanks!

–Ronen Kauffman
