Ninth Circuit clears path for Trump-era federal union bargaining rollbacks

A Ninth Circuit panel vacated a lower-court injunction blocking the Trump administration from ending collective bargaining rights for federal employees at more than 20 agencies, allowing agencies to proceed under updated OPM guidance. The ruling is narrow and does not resolve whether the orders were lawful, and AFGE says it may seek en banc review while pursuing the merits in district court. The administration has expanded exemptions from collective bargaining via executive orders, and litigation over their legality continues.
