COMPLAINT FOR DECLARATORY AND INJUNCTIVE RELIEF 

Plaintiffs National Treasury Employees Union (NTEU), National Federation of Federal Employees (NFFE), International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers (IAM), International Federation of Professional and Technical Engineers (IFPTE), and the International Union, United Automobile, Aerospace and Agricultural Implement Workers of America (UAW) (collectively, the Unions) represent hundreds of thousands of employees in dozens of federal agencies and departments across the nation. 

The Unions bring this action to protect the workers they represent from the Executive Branch’s attempts to dismantle the federal government through the mass firings of hundreds of thousands of employees (those who are considered “nonessential” for purposes of a government shutdown and those who are in probationary status) and a pressure campaign on federal workers to quit their jobs through a “deferred resignation program.”
