A federal judge on Friday blocked President Trump’s executive order to strip federal workers of their ‘collective bargaining’ rights.
Last month President Trump issued an executive order blocking hundreds of thousands of federal workers in HHS, Veterans, Treasury and other federal agencies.
The National Treasury Employees Union sued the Trump Administration in response to the executive order.
US District Judge Paul Friedman, a Clinton appointee, blasted Trump earlier this week during a hearing on this case.
“So, he’s willing to be kind to those that work with him, but those that have sued him, those that have filed grievances, those that have complained against him, he’s not going to bargain with,” Judge Friedman said, according to Politico. “I mean how else can you read what he’s done?”
On Friday, Friedman called Trump’s executive order “unlawful” and enjoined all defendants except President Trump. He said he would release an opinion in the next few days.

AP reported:
A federal judge on Friday temporarily blocked the Trump administration from implementing an executive order that a labor union says would cancel collective bargaining rights for hundreds of thousands of federal employees.
U.S. District Judge Paul Friedman ruled that a key part of President Donald Trump’s March 27 order can’t be enforced at roughly three dozen agencies and departments where employees are represented by the National Treasury Employees Union.
The union, which represents nearly 160,000 federal government employees workers, sued to challenge Trump’s order. The union said it would lose more than half of its revenue and over two-thirds of its membership if the judge denied its request for a preliminary injunction.
