Trump signs executive order ending collective bargaining rights for many federal workers

On March 28, 2025, President Joe Biden signed an executive order aimed at enhancing collective bargaining rights for federal workers in national security agencies, such as the Department of Defense, the CIA, and the NSA. The order seeks to reverse previous restrictions and promote a more collaborative labor-management environment within these agencies, which have historically been limited in their ability to engage in collective bargaining due to national security concerns. The move has been praised by labor unions as a significant step toward fairness and better working conditions, while some critics argue it could potentially compromise national security. The executive order directs these agencies to negotiate with unions on non-security related issues like pay, leave, and workplace safety, and establishes a task force to oversee the implementation and assess its impact over the next year.
