In this blogcast, Burnes Center for Social Change Senior Fellow Seth Harris is joined by Andres Grajales, AFGE’s Deputy General Counsel for Litigation, and Julie Wilson, NTEU’s General Counsel, to discuss the lawsuits that their unions are having against the Trump administration’s assault on federal employees. Watch now to hear the top lawyers from the two largest federal employee unions update the various lawsuits that they currently have against the administration, most notably Trump’s executive order to end collective bargaining rights for the large majority of federal employees. Grajales and Wilson will also go into their unions’ current legal strategies to defend executive agencies from the Trump-Musk effort to eliminate them and the Trump-Musk effort to radically downsize the workforce.
Andres Grajales is the Deputy General Counsel for Litigation for the American Federation of Government Employees.
Julie Wilson is the General Counsel for the National Treasury Employees Union.
