Trump Plans To Nullify New Federal Union Contracts

The president said agreements reached late in Joe Biden's presidency were meant to "harm my Administration."
President Donald Trump said late Friday that he plans to nullify federal employee union contracts that agencies agreed to late in former President Joe Biden’s term.
In a memo to agency heads, Trump said that Biden officials had negotiated new collective bargaining agreements meant to “to harm my Administration,” in part by undermining his return-to-office mandate, and that he intended to scrap them and bargain his own.
He referred specifically to a contract ratified with the Education Department days before he took office.
“Such last-minute, lame-duck CBAs, which purport to bind a new President to his predecessor’s policies, run counter to America’s system of democratic self-government,” he claimed.
The memo did not make clear his legal justification for nullifying existing union contracts. He referred to a 2010 Supreme Court decision that stated that a president “cannot choose to bind his successors by diminishing their powers.”
