Unions protect ALL OF US!
Unions protect ALL OF US!
AFGE, and other union lawsuits, don’t just protect union members. When a court blocks a RIF, Schedule F, or other illegal workplace practice, the agency is stopped from acting against all covered employees. That includes non-union and probationary staff. The protection is agency-wide. It protects all of us!
Many employees are not aware of this. They may have the impression that FWS or DOI has voluntarily decided to reverse course. They want to believe that the agency will look out for their interests in the future. That may have been true in the past, but remember, we have another three years of potential harassment and intimidation to look forward to.
