Your parents and grandparents worked one job because they had unions supported by Democrats. Republicans starting with Reagan busted the unions and allowed corporations to pay slave wages while taking away healthcare and pensions.

Trump administration will union-bust, courts be damned

Lisa Needham at Daily Kos:

Multiple courts have blocked the Office of Personnel Management’s attempt to terminate union contracts for thousands of federal employees—but hey, what if OPM just did it anyway? That’s exactly what they are doing. According to OPM, because President Donald Trump issued an executive order demanding union-busting, every agency must follow those orders—and not court orders—and terminate collective bargaining agreements.  It should go without saying that executive orders do not have the force of law, while court orders do, but in the current administration, whatever Trump vomits onto the page outweighs everything else.  The 1978 Civil Service Reform Act exempts certain workers at agencies where the “primary function” is national security, so Trump’s executive order basically declared that nearly all agencies somehow have a national security function and therefore can’t have unions. Fun fact: Agencies with no discernible national security function, like the Food and Drug Administration, are subject to this union-busting, but agencies that actually do involve national security, like the Border Patrol, get to keep their unions. Well, of course, since the Border Patrol union endorsed Trump in 2024. 

The Trump Regime is NO friend of unions.
