The plaintiff, a labor organization representing thousands of National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) employees, challenges President Trump’s Executive Order (EO) 14343 and NASA’s implementation of it. Plaintiff alleges that the Executive Order unlawfully strips collective bargaining rights from federal employees, including those at NASA, despite statutory protections under the Federal Service Labor-Management Relations Statute (FSLMRS), and is ultra vires and unconstitutional. The claims are brought under the First and Fifth Amendments, asserting that the EO improperly targets employees for protected activity and infringes on their rights. Plaintiff seeks declaratory and injunctive relief invalidating EO 14343 and prohibiting its enforcement.
