Second Judge Orders Trump Administration To Rehire Probationary Workers Let Go In Mass Firings

A second judge ordered the Trump administration to reinstate probationary workers who were laid off in mass firings across multiple agencies.
U.S. District Judge James Bredar noted that the mass terminations lacked proper notice and reasoning, confirming the layoffs violated legal requirements.
The ruling supports nearly two dozen states alleging the firings were illegal and affected state governments trying to assist jobless individuals.
The case continues as the Trump administration plans to appeal, asserting the states cannot influence its relationship with federal workers.
