AFSCME’s Saunders on judge blocking White House Fork Directive: ‘This is a great first step’
WASHINGTON – AFSCME President Lee Saunders released the following statement after a federal judge granted AFSCME’s motion to temporarily block the Trump administration’s deferred resignation deadline for federal employees:
“This is a great first step. We all depend on federal workers to keep our communities safe, healthy and strong, and politics should never get between them and the essential services they provide. They deserve to be treated with respect for their public service. We look forward to presenting our full case in the days to come.”
