💨 Abstract

A U.S. federal judge has blocked President Trump from removing the Democratic chair of the Merit Systems Protection Board, an agency that hears appeals by federal government employees who are fired or disciplined. Judge Rudolph Contreras ruled that Trump could not remove Cathy Harris before her term expires in three years without cause, citing the agency's need for independence.
