It means that individual employees - and not their unions - should have brought the suit. The unions don’t have standing.


Yep, this.

Also, we just had a mass firing at my agency. Some people, anticipating it, had already taken the Fork offer. So it apparently gave them no protection and makes me think others will just get fired even after voluntarily resigning.


So sorry to hear this PP. are you willing/ able to share which agency this is?


Yes- CFPB.


Wouldn’t this give CFPB standing?

Does the union have ability to sponsor these lawsuits?

Too late, this has an OPM quote from tonight that Fork is closed.

Next is likely Schedule F.

People really need to be job hunting. Good luck.

PS. Linking to the NYPost is how we know you’re a right wing troll. Work a little harder next time.

Are you a federal employee? If not, why are you posting in this thread over and over?

Likely true for many.

I disagree that fork is unlikely to be funded.

Schedule F seems like a bigger risk for many.

That would invite legal action. Just like the fork offer and the illegal firings at multiple agencies are.

This is one case. It was decided on standing, not the merits. Don’t let Musk trick you into thinking he’s won.

Class action baby!


Funded by who? Most Feds don’t have tens of thousands for legal fees.


Ever heard of contingency?


Good luck finding decent lawyers to take this on contingency.
