Judge Orders Trump To Reinstate Thousands of Fired Federal Employees
Huff PostLOADING ERROR LOADING WASHINGTON — A federal judge on Thursday ordered the Trump administration to reinstate tens of thousands of fired federal employees across six agencies, calling their terminations “unlawful.” U.S. District Judge William Alsup ruled that the Trump administration must immediately reinstate all of the probationary employees it fired from the departments of Defense, Treasury, Agriculture, Energy, Interior and Veterans Affairs. “AFGE is pleased with Judge Alsup’s order to immediately reinstate tens of thousands of probationary federal employees who were illegally fired from their jobs by an administration hellbent on crippling federal agencies and their work on behalf of the American public,” Kelley said in a statement. “AFGE will keep fighting until all federal employees who were unjustly and illegally fired are given their jobs back.” Democrats on Capitol Hill also celebrated the news, saying essential federal workers like nuclear researchers, park rangers and VA health care experts can now get back to work. The Trump administration's mass firings of federal employees are a "sham" effort to skirt the legal requirements for drastically reducing the size of the federal workforce, ruled U.S. District Judge William Alsup.
