While Americans voted, the Trump administration quietly revoked the union rights of immigration judges, which could jeopardize their independence

The Federal Labor Relations Authority ruled this week that immigration judges are "managers," not workers, denying them the right to collectively bargain.

The ruling comes after the Trump administration sought to silence the judges, some of whom have spoken out against its policies on immigration and COVID-19.

"FLRA's decision betrays the predetermined nature of the whole case," Judge Ashley Tabaddor told Business Insider. "It makes a mockery of the rule of law."
