SCOTUS: Trump Does Not Need To Rehire Thousands Of Fired Federal Workers
1 week ago
The Supreme Court on Tuesday blocked an order for President Donald Trump’s administration to return to work 16,000 probationary federal employees who were let go in mass firings. The justices acted in the administration’s emergency appeal of a ruling by a federal judge in California that the workers be reinstated while a lawsuit plays out because their firings didn’t follow federal law. It’s the third time in less than a week that the justices have sided with the administration in its fight against federal judges whose orders have slowed the president’s agenda.
