Members of the National Labor Relations Board and Merit Systems Protection Board were “unfired” on Monday after a federal appeals court reversed itself.
Regarding the legal technicalities, the United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia originally sided with the Trump administration on a 2-1 vote in late March. The case was then deemed important enough to warrant an en banc review, meaning the entire slate of judges heard the case. That has now led to a 7-4 decision against the administration.
