In a significant shift, President Trump signed an executive order to eliminate collective bargaining rights for federal employees involved in national security. This sweeping action affects workers across various federal agencies such as State, Defense, and Health and Human Services. According to the White House, the goal is to foster a responsive civil service necessary for national security, counteracting what the administration perceives as union interference in Trump's policy agenda. The measure has garnered backlash from unions, particularly the American Federation of Government Employees, representing over 800,000 workers.
