US EditionTrump 2.0 at 100 days: an onslaught against workers
- The Trump administration reached the 100-day mark of its second term on May 8, 2025, marked by extensive actions affecting workers and federal agencies across the United States.
- These actions came after the controversial removal of the head of the National Labor Relations Board, Gwynne Wilcox, and a series of executive orders that diminished protections and collective bargaining rights for federal employees.
- The administration, led in part by Elon Musk through the Department of Government Efficiency, fired over 121,300 federal workers, closed more than 40 mine safety offices, and planned cuts exceeding 80,000 jobs at the Department of Veterans Affairs.
- Workers represented by unions receive wages that are about 13.5 percent higher on average compared to non-union workers and benefit from improved health coverage, paid sick days, and retirement options. In contrast, the federal minimum wage remains fixed at $7.25 per hour, leaving approximately 14 million employees earning under $15 per hour.
- These developments have caused long wait times for services, raised concerns over loss of retirement benefits, and contributed to widespread protests and legal challenges against the administration’s labor and consumer policies.
