Hi,
Donald Trump has launched the most serious attack on unions in decades.
Last month, he issued an executive order stripping over 1 million federal
workers of their collective bargaining rights. "This administration's
latest executive order is union busting, pure and simple," said one nurse
at the department of Veterans Affairs.^1
But bipartisan legislation has been introduced in the House that would
nullify Trump’s executive order and restore the bargaining rights of
countless federal employees—the Protect America’s Workforce Act. House
leadership must bring it to the floor for a vote immediately.

Trump’s executive order claims to be in response to national security
concerns, but that’s plainly ridiculous. Elon Musk and Donald Trump don’t
like that unions are standing up for their members against attempts to
politicize the civil service, chaotically fire federal employees, and cut
vital services.
These federal workers have had union rights since before America went to
the moon. A union nurse at the VA isn’t a threat to national security.
With Trump and Elon Musk taking a chainsaw through government agencies,
workers need protection from retaliation now more than ever. We need to
unite and protect the rights of all workers.

Workforce Act now!
