Washington Redskins trademark dispute
The Washington Redskins trademark dispute is a legal effort in connection with the Washington Redskins name controversy arising from efforts of those who consider the term "redskin" to be an offensive and disparaging racial slur to prevent the owners of the Washington Redskins football team from being able to assert federal trademark protection for this name. These efforts have primarily been carried forward in two cases brought before the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO), and in lobbying efforts before the United States Congress relating to the trademarks at issue.
