  2. Senate P pares Back Federal Paid Leave Bill

    The fight for federal paid leave is heating up - will workers gain a guaranteed 12 weeks off to care for themselves, loved ones, or support a family member recovering from domestic violence, sexual assault, or stalking? A bipartisan bill in the House and a Senate proposal are vying for support.

  4. Lawmakers Urged to Override Trump's Anti-Union Order at Pentagon

    The American Federation of Government Employees is urging House lawmakers to override President Trump's executive order that strips collective bargaining rights from most federal employees, a move that would undermine the rights of workers to negotiate for better working conditions.

  14. The Democrats’ Disastrous Shutdown Strategy: A Shameful Weaponization of Human Suffering

    The government shutdown of 2025 has been one of the most shameful episodes in modern American politics, not just because of the dysfunction it exposed, but because of how both parties — especially the Democrats — turned human suffering into a political strategy. For over 40 days, the federal government was paralyzed, workers went without pay, vital services were halted, and millions of Americans were left hanging in uncertainty. All for what? Nothing. Absolutely nothing. When the dust […]

  17. As the government shutdown enters its fourth week, over 700,000 federal workers remain unpaid—except for 70,000 law enforcement officers like ICE, CBP, and Secret Service, who will receive “super checks” thanks to Trump’s "One Big Beautiful Bill" granting ICE $75B. Meanwhile, essential workers like air traffic controllers must work grueling hours with no pay, highlighting the arbitrary and dysfunctional way shutdowns affect different employees. Experts warn shutdowns are costlier than keeping government open, slamming the system’s randomness and economic damage.

    How Trump is decimating federal employee unions one step at a time

    September 1, 20255:00 AM ET, By Andrea Hsu 4-Minute Listen Transcript

    Sharda Fornnarino is an outpatient surgery nurse at the Rocky Mountain Regional VA Medical Center in Aurora, Colo., where she’s also local director for National Nurses United. In August, the Department of Veterans Affairs notified union members that it was ending nearly all of its collective bargaining agreements. Rachel Woolf for NPR.

    Sharda Fornnarino got the news in early August.

    The Department of Veterans Affairs was ending nearly all of its collective bargaining agreements. The agency gave labor unions just days to get out of federal buildings.

    “We went in on the weekend, and we emptied our office space,” says Fornnarino, an outpatient surgery nurse at the Rocky Mountain Regional VA Medical Center outside Denver, where she’s also local director for National Nurses United.

    Federal employees have had the right to join unions and collectively bargain over working conditions since the 1960s. Unlike private sector workers, government employees cannot negotiate wages or strike. But through collective bargaining, they do help shape disciplinary procedures, parental leave policies, how overtime is managed and much more.

    Giving workers a say in workplace policies, the thinking goes, leads to less friction in the workplace and more effective government.

    But President Trump has abandoned that idea. Instead, he’s argued that federal employee unions pose a danger to the country. In March, he issued an executive order ending collective bargaining rights for more than one million federal workers at about 20 federal agencies. Almost immediately, many agencies halted automatic deductions of union dues from employee paychecks, cutting off a critical source of cash flow to the unions. Just ahead of Labor Day, Trump issued a new executive order, adding about a half dozen agencies to the list.

    Unions have filed lawsuits, alleging Trump is retaliating against them for opposing parts of his agenda. Lower courts temporarily halted the March order; the government appealed.

    Two appeals courts then said the Trump administration could move forward while litigation continues, citing the president’s unique responsibility for protecting national security. In their rulings, the judges noted that the Trump administration had told agencies not to terminate collective bargaining agreements while litigation was pending.

  22. Kent Nishimura from Reuters reports a significant ruling as a federal appeals court has lifted the injunction blocking the Trump administration from limiting unionization and collective bargaining for federal employees. This decision enables the execution of a March executive order affecting various agencies, as the court found insufficient evidence of irreparable harm by the National Treasury Employees Union. Explore the implications of this ruling. Full article: cnbc.com/2025/05/17/court-give #TrumpAdministration #FederalEmployees #UnionBargaining #NationalSecurity #CourtRuling

    From the article: "For decades, the federal government has positioned itself as being committed to inclusive hiring and long-term retention across agencies. But as mass layoffs ripple through the federal workforce under President Donald Trump’s Republican administration, disabled employees are among those being let go.

    "Amid the firings, rollbacks of accommodation guidance for businesses and skepticism of disability inclusion practices, advocates and experts wonder if the government’s status as a “model employer” will hold true.

    "Trump has said he ended diversity, equity and inclusion programs in the government because people should be hired based on work quality and merit alone.

    "However, under Schedule A, candidates already have to be qualified for the position with or without an accommodation. They don’t get a job solely because they have a disability."

  24. Some people take their extra day off on Mondays. I'm hearing that people MUST be in tomorrow (unless on leave/sick) or else.

    How shitty.

    Not even giving people a chance to prepare. What if they're out of town, not heading home til Monday, to be in office Tuesday?

    SOL, I guess. 🫤

  25. Guess not enough people at DHS took the DRP 2.0. Bc now alternate and compressed work schedules (ie getting 1 day off every other week or a 1/2 day off every week) all got cancelled. Mid pay period. On a Sunday.

    Doesn't affect me, though was gonna sign up for one. But my other civ coworkers were doing those.

    Must be in the office 5 days a week now. They really want to make people miserable.
