The United State Supreme Court has cleared the way for President Donald Trump to begin carrying out mass firings of federal workers.
The court, lifted a block imposed by a lower court on Trump’s plans to potentially lay off tens of thousands of government employees.
It will be recalled that A coalition of labor unions, non-profit groups and others had sued the Trump administration arguing that it had exceeded its authority by ordering mass firings and agency reforms without congressional approval.
US District Court Judge Susan Illston had paused the planned sweeping layoffs in May on the grounds that the moves required a green light from Congress.
