CWA members and staffers joined union siblings at a rally in Washington, D.C., last week calling to restore bargaining rights stripped from federal workers by the current administration. President Donald Trump, at the start of his second term, signed an executive order revoking protections for nearly one million federal workers, hindering a wide range of services, including healthcare for veterans.
