The order has been met with intense backlash from workers' advocates

President Donald Trump has issued an executive order freezing pay for federal workers in 2019, blocking a 2.1 percent pay raise that was set to go into effect across the board in January.

Friday's order comes as some 800,000 federal employees remain furloughed or working without pay due to the partial government shutdown that is expected to continue into the new year.

The order, which overrides an automatic raise law, has been met with intense backlash from workers' advocates.

'This is just pouring salt into the wound,' Tony Reardon, president of the National Treasury Employees Union - which represents about 100,000 federal workers - said in a statement.

'It is shocking that federal employees are taking yet another financial hit. As if missed paychecks and working without pay were not enough, now they have been told that they don’t even deserve a modest pay increase.'

A) How much does being President of the NTEU pay these days? 500 thou or so, I'm guessing?

B) Why are government "workers" Unionized anyway?

Half of Federal Employees identify as Republicans

Looks like Trump just lost a million votes

RINOS do not count; your opinion is just more liberal wishful thinking.

i think it is simply another lawless thing that Pres Trump is over reaching or abusing his power on... perhaps?

if it is a law that cost of living raises are given to gvt employees or certain gvt employees each year, then the president can not over rule the law passed by Congress, and signed by a president, with an executive order....
