An appeals court ordered Cathy Harris and Gwynne Wilcox reinstated to their positions at agencies protecting workers’ rights.
A full appeals court panel voted 7-4 to restore Cathy Harris and Gwynne Wilcox to their positions, setting up an expected Supreme Court finale.
The ruling, in a case seen as a test of the president’s push for expansive executive authority, cripples the operations of the Merit Systems Protection Board and the National Labor Relations Board.
The ruling, which the Trump administration immediately moved to appeal, was a rebuke of Mr. Trump’s expansive view of executive power.
