The Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals just upheld Donald
Trump's executive order which can, in some cases, exclude federal
agencies form collective bargaining agreements in the interests of
streamlining operations for legitimate national security issues. In
doing so they overturned a lower court order forbidding the practice.
The
court found that the national security issue was legitimate and that,
despite protestations to the contrary, there was no evidence to support
the assertion that the action was retaliation for political actions by
those unions in opposition to Trump policies.
The executive order in question was signed on March 27 of last year.
It
is expected the complainants, including labor unions and the State of
California, will continue to purse the matter. Rob Bonta is screaming
like a mashed cat.
