Appeals court sides with Trump on stopping union bargaining for federal workers

[Free Vulcan]

Afederal 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.

What a great step forward for getting control over the govt. workforce.

Pres. Trump has been great about taking on tough issues that need to be resolved.

Even FDR, of all people, was opposed to collective bargaining by government employees!

Tons of money from federal unions have made their way to Democrat coffers over the years.

Dems need to siphon alternatives from their friendly billionaires and the Ben&Jerry's of the world.

United Auto Workers
American labor union
uaw.org

The United Auto Workers, fully named International Union, United Automobile, Aerospace and Agricultural Implement Workers of America, is an American labor union that represents workers in the United States and southern Ontario, Canada.

It was founded as part of the Congress of Industrial Organizations in the 1930s and grew rapidly from 1936 to the 1950s. The union played a major role in the liberal wing of the Democratic Party under the leadership of Walter Reuther.

It was known for gaining high wages and pensions for automotive manufacturing workers, but it was unable to unionize auto plants built by foreign-based car makers in the South after the 1970s, and it went into a steady decline in membership; reasons for this included increased automation, decreased use of labor, mismanagement, movements of manufacturing, and increased globalization.

Last thing FDR would like to see is a Federal Government strike...         (seeing how quickly the UAW grew in power)

Potential strikes was FDR's stated reason for opposing collective bargaining for Federal unions!  He saw the damage strikes could do.  Funny, he was only concerned about the damage that could be done to the government, screw those guys in the private sector.
