The United States (US) Supreme Court has stopped “lawless” lower Courts from restraining President Donald Trump’s authority over Federal personnel, Attorney General, Pamela Bondi said.
The US Apex Court has cleared the way for Trump’s government to resume plans for mass firings of federal workers that critics warn could threaten crucial government services.
Expanding a winning streak for the President Trump, the Justices on Tuesday lifted a lower court order that had frozen sweeping federal layoffs known as “reductions in force” while litigation in the case proceeds.
AG Pam Bondi said: “Today, the Supreme Court stopped lawless lower courts from restricting President Trump’s authority over federal personnel — another Supreme Court victory thanks to @thejusticedept attorneys.
“Now, federal agencies can become more efficient than ever before.”
The decision could bring about hundreds of thousands of job losses at the departments of agriculture, commerce, health and human services, state, treasury, veterans affairs, as well as, other agencies.
