President Donald Trump has canceled public-employee union contracts for thousands of federal workers, specifically those in agencies related to national security, following a long-standing warning from past presidents about the potential dangers of power-hungry public-sector unions. This move is part of a broader effort by Trump to reduce union influence and give agencies more flexibility in personnel decisions. The action has sparked criticism from labor unions and advocacy groups, who argue that it undermines workers' rights and could lead to worse working conditions. The issue highlights ongoing tensions between the executive branch and public-employee unions.
