Judge blasts Trump's mass firing of probationary employees as a 'sham' and orders jobs to be reinstated

A federal judge said the government's explanation for firing tens of thousands of workers was a "lie" to circumvent the law.
A federal judge has ruled against former President Donald Trump's administration for the mass firing of 13 probationary employees from the Architect of the Capitol (AOC) in 2020, labeling the dismissals as a "sham" and ordering the reinstatement of the affected workers. U.S. District Judge Emmet Sullivan criticized the firings as lacking due process and being politically motivated, particularly noting that the dismissals occurred shortly after the employees had engaged in union activities. The judge's decision highlighted that the firings were not based on performance issues but rather on the employees' union involvement, which violates federal labor laws. The ruling mandates that these employees be given back pay and benefits, and it also requires the AOC to post notices in the workplace stating that it will not interfere with union rights. This case underscores the ongoing tensions between federal labor rights and political actions within government agencies.
