Judge blocks Trump admin from firing federal probationary workers

Federal probationary workers in 19 states and Washington, D.C. who were fired by President Donald Trump's administration must be reinstated, according to a new ruling.

A federal judge blocked President Donald Trump’s administration from firing federal probationary workers in 19 states and Washington, D.C., on Wednesday.

U.S. District Court Judge James Bredar’s order directs 18 federal agencies to “undo” the “purported terminations” of thousands of probationary federal workers before Tuesday, April 8th, though the order only applies to states whose attorneys general brought the case.
