Federal judges side with Trump on ending union bargaining for federal workers
UNITED STATES, AUG 2 – The 9th Circuit lifted a block on an executive order ending bargaining rights for over a dozen federal agencies, affecting hundreds of thousands of workers, the court said.
- On Aug 1, a federal appeals court allowed US President Donald Trump to move forward with ending collective bargaining, pausing a lower court injunction involving six unions.
- A June injunction by U.S. District Judge James Donato blocked 21 agencies from implementing Trump’s March 27 order, challenged earlier this year.
- Affected departments include the Departments of Justice, State, Defense, Treasury and Health and Human Services, where agencies could change working conditions and more easily hire or fire workers.
- Kelley said the union is "confident in our ability to ultimately prevail" after calling the ruling "a setback for First Amendment rights in America."
- The panel allowed Trump’s broader effort to assert more control over the federal workforce while litigation continues, stating the order did not express 'retaliatory animus'.
