In a significant legal development, a federal judge has indefinitely extended the ban on large-scale reductions in force (RIFs) proposed by the Trump administration, effectively blocking attempts to implement mass layoffs across major federal agencies. The ruling comes as the administration seeks to appeal this decision and has requested the Supreme Court to allow its restructuring plans to proceed. Various courts have consistently upheld this injunction, determining that the Trump administration lacks the authority to downsize federal agencies without Congressional approval. As agencies remain barred from issuing mass layoffs, employees express uncertainty about their job security, while the case continues to evolve in the courts.
