Statement by NTEU National President Doreen Greenwald

Today’s bench order from Judge Jackson is a vindication for NTEU and its members, who wholeheartedly contend that the administration’s abrupt and chaotic RIF process does not serve the American people and is a deep violation of the rights of CFPB employees. Cutting over 80 percent of CFPB staff is not only unwise, it’s a direct attack on the financial security of millions of Americans. We will continue to advocate on behalf of the American people and NTEU members in court in response to President Trump’s war on civil servants and we aim to demonstrate that these frenzied, thoughtless attempts to shutter agencies that have done nothing but faithfully serve the American people are a detriment to the public good.
