Judge allows Trump’s mass firings of federal workers to continue

A federal judge ruled that the Trump administration can continue firing federal employees, rejecting a union-led challenge. Judge Christopher Cooper said he likely lacks authority to rule on the legality of the firings, directing complaints to the Federal Labor Relations Authority. The decision supports Trump’s efforts to shrink the federal workforce, despite union opposition. The National Treasury Employees Union vowed to continue legal action against the administration’s actions, which affect multiple federal agencies. Previous court rulings have also dismissed union challenges due to a lack of legal standing.
