In a late-night decision, former President Trump has moved to fire two Democratic commissioners from the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) and several key leaders of the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB), breaking with longstanding presidential precedents. This unprecedented action has raised significant concerns about the enforcement of civil rights and labor laws as it effectively hampers the capabilities of these agencies. Critics, including ousted NLRB members, are calling these firings illegal and have vowed to challenge them in court. The dismissals are seen as a significant blow to workplace rights enforcement and have left both agencies struggling to maintain quorum and effectively fulfill their mandates.
