The American Federation of Government Employees, the largest federal union, is suing President Donald Trump and the Office of Personnel Management over a recent executive order aimed at restricting union activity.
The lawsuit was filed May 30 in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia, and targets an executive order to curtail the amount of time federal employees can spend conducting union business to one-quarter of their paid time. That order also prevents employees from lobbying during paid time outside of their official capacities as federal workers.
