A federal judge in San Francisco says the Trump administration's firing of thousands of probationary employees is illegal and should be stopped.
U.S. District Judge William Alsup says the U.S. Office of Personnel Management must rescind directives sent to some agencies ordering them to fire their probationary employees — typically those in their first or second year in a job.
The decision came at the end of a hearing on Thursday. His order covers the Veterans Affairs Department, the National Park Service, the Small Business Administration, the Bureau of Land Management, the National Science Foundation, the Department of Defense and other agencies whose firings impact the civic groups that sued the Trump administration.e
