 Apr. 15, 2025 | LABOR RIGHTS | More than a dozen major unions filed a lawsuit on Monday seeking to block the administration of President Donald Trump from shutting down a federal agency that mediates labor disputes in the public and private sectors. The unions in a complaint, filed in Manhattan federal court said that efforts to dismantle the Federal Mediation and Conciliation Service violate Congress' constitutional powers to create or dissolve federal agencies. The mediation service was created in 1947 and primarily works to broker settlements in collective bargaining disputes through mediation and arbitration. Reuters
