He limited the grievances unions could file, streamlined collective bargaining negotiations, and reduced the hours union members could spend doing union work instead of their real jobs.<\/p>\n<p>So unions were furious. They claimed Trump\u2019s executive orders wiped out their collective bargaining rights. They got a sympathetic federal judge to issue an injunction.<img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-241581\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/00-Rush-Morning-Update-2.gif\" alt=\"\" width=\"199\" height=\"137\"><\/p>\n<p>From there, the case went to a three-judge panel on the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals which ruled in favor of President Trump. The unions asked for a rehearing by the full court, which they got. Last Wednesday, the full D.C. Court of Appeals sided with President Trump.<\/p>\n<p>This is the first time ever that government unions have had their power curtailed. The effect was immediate in real life. The day after the unions lost in court, the American Federation of Government Employees settled their contract dispute with the Social Security Administration. They saw the writing on the wall. That contract was the best they were gonna get before Trump\u2019s reforms kick in.<\/p>\n<p>This won\u2019t generate headlines in the Drive-By Media, but it\u2019s a big deal inside the Beltway. So big, I wouldn\u2019t be surprised if Democrats added it to their phony impeachment claims against President Trump.<\/p>\n<p>And yeah, a Russian guy has sued Apple for turning him gay. I\u2019m not kidding about that!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: This is the first time ever that government unions have had their power curtailed. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":56,"featured_media":270056,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","ngg_post_thumbnail":0},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v17.6 -
