In response to an executive order that will cancel or modify collective bargaining agreements with tens of thousands of federal government workers, AFL-CIO President Liz Shuler issued the following statement:
Rejecting federal workers’ collective bargaining agreements is union busting, plain and simple. Now more than ever, federal workers need strong collective bargaining agreements so they are protected and can continue to do the essential work we all depend on: delivering Social Security and disability checks, caring for our veterans, or keeping our food and transportation safe. These attempts to break our contracts will not silence our voices.
