Multistate Coalition Sues Trump Administration Over Mass Firings of Federal Workers
In a significant legal challenge, a coalition of 20 states, led by Minnesota and including New York, California, and Wisconsin, has filed a lawsuit against the Trump administration, alleging that mass firings of probationary federal workers were illegal and reckless. These firings have raised concerns among federal employees and prompted multiple lawsuits. State Attorneys General claim that the actions taken by the Trump administration violate due process and have triggered unlawful layoffs across various federal agencies. Amid rising tensions, a federal judge is currently considering a request to block these firings as the lawsuits unfold.
