 June 15, 2018 | WORKERS’ RIGHTS | A coalition of 13 unions and the Federal Workers Alliance (FWA) filed a lawsuit Wednesday challenging three executive orders President Trump issued last month to make it easier to fire federal employees. In a 32-page complaint filed in U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia, the unions, which also include the National Federation of Federal Employees, argue Trump’s orders violate the due process and collective bargaining rights of workers employed by the federal government.. the unions say Trump has no authority to issue the orders under the Constitution itself or Congress… The Hill Related: “This is a democracy, not a monarchy with a king who can unilaterally eliminate the rights of Congress and federal works.”
