That is awesome news!

In case someone doesn’t know, fed workers were offered a “fork in the road” (to resign) before mass firings happen.

All of it was completely illegal.

The emails were insulting and threatening.

For more in-depth news about this, please see Reddit /fednews.

Before an 80% RIF is done to all fed workers.

They are making offers that are not legal.

The fed workers are standing strong against all of this and the courts have now shut it down as well.

And in other good news,
