Appeals Court Revives Trump's Executive Order on Federal Worker Unions

A federal appeals court has lifted a block on a Trump-era executive order that targeted federal worker unions. The ruling allows the government to implement stricter regulations on union activities within federal agencies.

Impact on Federal Employee Unions

This decision reverses a lower court's injunction, potentially impacting the power and operations of federal employee unions across the country.

The Justice Department defended the executive order as a measure to ensure efficient government operations.
