Trump's VA Strips Protection From Workers' Contract

The effect, a union representing federal workers says, will be to make it easier to fire government employees.

The VA sent a “notice of repudiation” to the American Federation of Government Employees (AFGE) on May 21 informing the union that the VA would no longer comply with this piece of the union contract, which has been in effect since 2011, calling it “null, void and unenforceable.”


Rump and his supporters are filthy and disgusting assholes.
