A federal judge blocks Trump-era layoffs, citing law and protecting 300 workers' jobs and benefits.
A federal judge in San Francisco, Susan Illston, has ruled that hundreds of layoffs by the Trump administration at the State, Education, Defense, and other agencies will be blocked, citing a continuing resolution that prohibits such cuts through January 30, 2026.
The judge, a Clinton appointee, found the layoffs violated the law and caused significant harm to federal workers, including loss of healthcare and job security.
She is expected to issue a preliminary injunction, potentially reinstating about 300 workers and halting further separations, while considering a possible delay to allow the government to appeal.
The decision supports unions, including the American Federation of Government Employees, who argued the actions defied congressional intent.
The White House has not responded.
