The Supreme Court blocks the order forcing the Trump administration to reintegrate workers

Washington (AP) – The Supreme Court Tuesday blocked a prescription for the Trump administration to return to work thousands of federal employees who were released mass fire aimed at considerably reducing the federal government.

The judges acted in the emergency call of the administration of a decision by a federal judge in California ordering that 16,000 probationary employees of six federal agencies are restored while a trial takes place because their layoffs have not followed the federal law.

The court order consisted of a technical legal assessment of the law or the position of several non -profit associations to continue the layoffs. Judges Sonia Sotomayor and Ketanji Brown Jackson said they would have maintained the judge’s order in place.

It was the third time in less than a week that the judges have slowed down with the republican administration in its fight against federal judges whose orders have slowed the agenda of President Donald Trump. The court also interrupted an order for the recovery of subsidies for teacher training and raised an order which froze the deportations under 18th century law in wartime.

But as with the previous orders, the effect of the Tuesday order will be limited. Many agencies will remain on remunerated administrative leave for the moment due to an order in a separate trial on layoffs.

The second trial, submitted in Maryland, implies employees of these same six agencies, plus a dozen more. This order is more limited in that it only applies in the 19 states and the District of Columbia which continued the administration.

The Ministry of Justice makes the Maryland order separately.

At least 24,000 probationary employees have been dismissed since Trump took office, according to prosecution, although the government has not confirmed this number.

The coalition of organizations and the unions that pursued said that it was disappointed with the court order, but he said that the battle was far from over.

“There is no doubt that thousands of public service employees have been illegally dismissed in order to paralyze the federal agencies and their crucial programs which serve millions of Americans every day,” the coalition said in a statement.

US District Judge William Alsup in San Francisco judged that dismissals were poorly directed by the staff management office and its acting director. He ordered the rehabilitation of the departments of veterans, agriculture, defense, energy, interior and treasure.

Alsup, who was appointed by Democratic President Bill Clinton, expressed his frustration with regard to what he called on the government’s attempt to bypass the laws and regulations in dismissing probationary workers with fewer legal protections.

He said he was dismayed that the employees were informed that they were dismissed for poor performance despite the elegant evaluations a few months earlier.

The administration insisted on the fact that the agencies themselves have led the layoffs and that they “have since decided to stand on these layoffs,” said General Solicitor D. John Sauer in court.
