AFSCME’s Saunders on Fork Directive Lawsuit: We must continue to stop the purge of federal workers
WASHINGTON – AFSCME President Lee Saunders released the following statement after a federal judge continued the pause on the Trump administration’s deferred resignation program for federal employees:
“We are pleased with the judge’s decision today. We must continue to stop the purge of federal workers. They are heroes for everything they do for our communities, not numbers on a political scoreboard. Together with AFGE and NAGE-SEIU, we will continue to move this case forward until federal workers receive the respect they deserve.”
