Trump faces an increasingly tough crowd

</h2>
<p style="font:normal 17px/25px georgia,serif;color:#333;margin:0 0 15px">
<span>
President Trump won over Americans with a promise to return the country to
</span>
<a class="css-sdwaa1" style="color:#286ed0;-webkit-text-decoration:underline;text-decoration:underline">
“boom” times
</a>
<span>
of low taxes and deregulation. Fifty days into office, he’s now pitching an economy in “

<a class="css-sdwaa1" style="color:#286ed0;-webkit-text-decoration:underline;text-decoration:underline">
a period of transition

His stay-patient message may get tested today, when he is set to meet with members of the Business Roundtable, whose ranks include influential C.E.O.s — many of whose companies’ stocks have been hit hard by

Stock futures are up a little today — but still stung by yesterday’s huge plunges.

The S&P 500 is nearing a correction after

</p>
<p style="font:normal 17px/25px georgia,serif;color:#333;margin:0 0 15px">
<span>
Much of that is driven by worries about Trump’s economic policy, principally his on-again-off-again tariffs. The president is set to impose more levies as soon as tomorrow and has put companies and trading partners on notice that they

Coming into 2025, Elon Musk appeared to be riding high given his growing political clout and the soaring fortunes of Tesla and his other businesses.

<p style="font:normal 17px/25px georgia,serif;color:#333;margin:0 0 15px">

<p style="font:normal 17px/25px georgia,serif;color:#333;margin:0 0 15px">
<span>
Musk also appeared to be committed to his government cost-cutting work. He told Kudlow that the Department of Government Efficiency worked “in consultation” with Cabinet secretaries, and that he planned to double the group’s staff to 200. (That’s despite the Trump administration saying the billionaire

And SpaceX’s latest failed test flight, which produced a shower of debris that delayed flights around Florida and the Caribbean, has spurred questions about potential delays in the rocket giant’s development process — and whether it faces growing political liabilities.

Big Law comes to a Delaware overhaul’s defense
</span>
</h2>
<p style="font:normal 17px/25px georgia,serif;color:#333;margin:0 0 15px">
<span>
As Delaware lawmakers prepare to hold hearings tomorrow about a bill that could reshape corporate America, some of the biggest corporate law firms are coming out in favor of it, DealBook’s Lauren Hirsch is first to report.
</span>
</p>
<p style="font:normal 17px/25px georgia,serif;color:#333;margin:0 0 15px">

Today, 21 corporate law firms — including Simpson Thacher and Bartlett; Cravath, Swaine & Moore; and Paul, Weiss, Rifkind, Wharton & Garrison — will publish a letter strongly supporting legislation that would override a series of decisions by the Delaware Court of Chancery. These rulings have sparked backlash from companies and led many, including

</a>
<span>
, to contemplate moving their incorporation outside of the state.

<p style="font:normal 17px/25px georgia,serif;color:#333;margin:0 0 15px">
<span style="font-weight:700;font-family:arial,sans-serif;color:#000">
The letter’s argument:
</span>
<span>
The bill is “an important step in maintaining Delaware’s status as the jurisdiction of choice for sophisticated clients when they create companies,” the law firms write.
</span>
</p>
<p style="font:normal 17px/25px georgia,serif;color:#333;margin:0 0 15px">
<span style="font-weight:700;font-family:arial,sans-serif;color:#000">
Some background:
</span>
<span>
Delaware has been
</span>
<a class="css-sdwaa1" style="color:#286ed0;-webkit-text-decoration:underline;text-decoration:underline">
ensnared in controversy
</a>
<span>
after several rulings, including Chancellor Kathaleen McCormick’s decision last year to nullify a big payout for Elon Musk at Tesla. While Musk’s ire over that decision brought attention to the chancery court, many corporate lawyers say they’re more broadly frustrated with the court’s treatment of companies with controlling shareholders, arguing that it has been overly deferential to
</span>
<span style="font-style:italic">
non
</span>
<span>
controlling shareholders.
</span>
</p>
<p style="font:normal 17px/25px georgia,serif;color:#333;margin:0 0 15px">
<span>
Given how corporate America fuels Delaware’s budget, a group of Delaware state senators last month
</span>
<a class="css-sdwaa1" style="color:#286ed0;-webkit-text-decoration:underline;text-decoration:underline">
proposed a bill
</a>
<span>
to amend the state constitution that would
</span>
<a class="css-sdwaa1" style="color:#286ed0;-webkit-text-decoration:underline;text-decoration:underline">
effectively override years of case law
</a>
<span>
by the Delaware Court of Chancery. The group sidestepped the usual process for proposing bills, allowing it to move swiftly — but critics say that it also
</span>
<a class="css-sdwaa1" style="color:#286ed0;-webkit-text-decoration:underline;text-decoration:underline">
left out early input
</a>
<span>
from key members of the influential Delaware bar.
</span>
</p>
<p style="font:normal 17px/25px georgia,serif;color:#333;margin:0 0 15px">
<span style="font-weight:700;font-family:arial,sans-serif;color:#000">
The issue was a major topic at Tulane University’s Corporate Law Institute conference,
</span>
<span>
a
</span>
<a class="css-sdwaa1" style="color:#286ed0;-webkit-text-decoration:underline;text-decoration:underline">
big gathering of deal makers
</a>
<span>
held last week in New Orleans. “We are disempowering Delaware courts,” said Ned Weinberger of the plaintiffs’ law firm Labaton Keller Sucharow, arguing the amendment would erode the voice of minority shareholders.
</span>
</p>
<p style="font:normal 17px/25px georgia,serif;color:#333;margin:0 0 15px">
<span>
Scott Barshay, a partner at Paul, Weiss and a top deal maker, said the amendment would help stop a corporate exodus from Delaware. “It’s very important that this legislation gets passed,” he said onstage.
</span>
</p>
<p style="font:normal 17px/25px georgia,serif;color:#333;margin:0 0 15px">
<span style="font-weight:700;font-family:arial,sans-serif;color:#000">
The letter was born out of sideline conversations at the conference.
</span>
<span>
It argues that, despite the relatively unusual intervention by the Delaware legislature, a response to corporate angst is not unprecedented.
</span>
</p>
<p style="font:normal 17px/25px georgia,serif;color:#333;margin:0 0 15px">
<span>
“Over its long history at the epicenter of American corporate law, Delaware has repeatedly adjusted its approach in order to modernize and respond to market developments,” the lawyers write.
</span>
</p>
<p style="font:normal 17px/25px georgia,serif;color:#333;margin:0 0 15px">
<span style="font-weight:700;font-family:arial,sans-serif;color:#000">
Who’s in — and who’s out:
</span>
<span>
Other law firms that signed the letter include Kirkland & Ellis; Latham & Watkins; and Weil, Gotshal & Manges.
</span>
</p>
<p style="font:normal 17px/25px georgia,serif;color:#333;margin:0 0 15px">
<span>
Corporate law insiders will notice one major law firm that
</span>
<span style="font-style:italic">

</span>
<span>
sign: Wachtell, Lipton, Rosen & Katz, where Leo Strine Jr., a former chancellor of the Court of Chancery, is of counsel. (That said, Martin Lipton, one of the firm’s founders,
</span>
<a class="css-sdwaa1" style="color:#286ed0;-webkit-text-decoration:underline;text-decoration:underline">
wrote in support of the bill
</a>
<span>
shortly after its release.)
</span>
</p>
<p style="font:normal 17px/25px georgia,serif;color:#333;margin:0 0 15px">
<span>
At the conference, Strine allowed that more companies have become concerned about unpredictability in Delaware courts. Separately, David Katz, a senior M.&A. partner at Wachtell, said the bill wasn’t connected to Musk’s criticism of Delaware, a common critique of it.
