The resolution, introduced by a group of Michigan representatives, expresses strong opposition to the actions of the Trump administration that threaten the livelihoods of federal workers and undermine their rights to organize and collectively bargain. It emphasizes the vital role that federal employees play in supporting troops, caring for veterans, and contributing to society and the economy. The resolution highlights the need for fair treatment and protections for these workers, asserting that they should not be terminated without just cause, as this not only affects them but also safeguards citizens from potential government corruption.
The resolution specifically condemns President Trump's actions, including the summary dismissal of federal employees without proper justification and an executive order issued on March 27, 2025, which restricts collective bargaining rights for nearly a million federal workers. It argues that these measures violate principles of fairness and justice in the workplace. The resolution calls for an immediate halt to any further actions that would harm federal workers and requests that copies be sent to the President and Michigan's congressional delegation to ensure awareness of this stance.
