A federal appeals court lifted a judge’s order on Friday that prevented the Trump administration from ending union bargaining for federal workers.
Six unions, including the American Federation of Government Employees (AFGE), had obtained an injunction that was issued by U.S. District Judge James Donato, a lower court judge.
A three-judge panel on the San Francisco-based 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals paused the injunction, which prevented 21 federal agencies from implementing Trump’s executive order from March ending union bargaining for federal workers.Â
