The Department of Veterans Affairs appeared to be the first agency to begin terminating union contracts, affecting more than 400,000 workers.

Unionization is the one thing which has kept wages up and working conditions decent for federal workers.

    Well, they had collective bargaining rights until Trump “national securitied” them away this year. It sounds like they traded the ability to strike for that collective bargaining back in the Carter administration. Between Reagan and Trump, that’s not looking to have been the greatest success. Not really sure what all else they can accomplish at this point.
