U.S. Treasury Ends Union Contracts for IRS and Fiscal Service Employees

The U.S. Treasury Department has terminated collective bargaining agreements with the National Treasury Employees Union representing workers at the IRS and the Bureau of the Fiscal Service, citing an executive order signed by President Trump in March. This move follows a recent court ruling allowing implementation of the order, despite ongoing legal challenges and a preliminary injunction in another case. Union leaders argue the contracts cannot be ended unilaterally, while Treasury officials emphasize a commitment to operational efficiency and taxpayer service.
