WASHINGTON — A former Trump campaign staffer filed a class action Wednesday seeking to invalidate all of the nondisclosure and nondisparagement agreements that the Trump campaign required all staffers to sign.
The claims brought by former campaign staffer Jessica Denson represent the broadest attack to date on the Trump campaign’s practice of having staffers, volunteers, and contractors sign agreements barring them from ever publicly criticizing Trump, his company, or his family, and from disclosing private or confidential information.

Denson, who has claimed she was a victim of discrimination and harassment while she worked for the campaign, declined an interview request. Her attorney David Bowles told BuzzFeed News that although their case only involves the version of the NDA that Trump campaign workers signed, a ruling for Denson could affect other campaign workers or Trump administration staffers who may have signed similar agreements.
“[Denson] was deeply disappointed by the way she was treated by the campaign. She’s been deeply disappointed by the way the Trump campaign has used the NDA against her and she fears that similar things are being done to other campaign workers. She wants to put it right,” Bowles said.
Denson’s case comes on the heels of a lawsuit filed earlier this month by Sims, who is challenging an arbitration demand filed by the campaign accusing him of violating an NDA that he signed.
