Trump's federal worker "buyout" program can proceed, judge rules
Briefly

U.S. District Judge George A. O'Toole ruled against a lawsuit from a union opposing a federal buyout program, stating that the court lacks jurisdiction and the lawsuit does not have standing. This ruling follows a temporary restraining order issued last week against the Office of Personnel Management. The buyout, with input from Elon Musk, is part of a workforce reduction initiative initiated by the Trump administration, which has already seen 75,000 federal workers accept the deal. A new deadline for the buyout response will be announced soon by OPM.
This program was carefully designed, thoroughly vetted, and provides generous benefits so federal workers can plan for their futures.
The Court dissolved the injunction due to a lack of standing. This goes to show that lawfare will not ultimately prevail over the will of 77 million Americans who supported President Trump and his priorities.
