    Fortune: Prof. James Brudney Predicts Federal Unions Will Challenge President Trump’s Directives

    Thousands of employees have lost their jobs in the latest wave of the Trump’s administration’s federal overhaul. James Brudney, Joseph Crowley Chair in Labor and Employment Law at Fordham Law, predicts in this Fortune article that federal unions will challenge President Donald Trump’s directives.

    In the latest installment of the Trump’s administration’s federal overhaul, thousands of government employees were dismissed across several different agencies over the weekend.

    …

    Unsurprisingly, federal worker unions, which have already filed lawsuits against the Trump administration for its previous mass resignation offer, are less than thrilled by this latest move.

    …

    “When the reasons for firing someone are arbitrary and patently false, or when there were no reasons given at all, those are legitimate grounds for challenging what went on,” says James Brudney, labor and employment law chair at Fordham University School of Law.

    Read “The Trump administration just used a move to fire thousands of federal workers that has become all too familiar in corporate America” in Fortune.
