USDA mass reorganization plan remains on hold

Show notes

The Agriculture Department’s mass reorganization plan will have to remain on hold. A federal judge has denied USDA’s request to stay an injunction that’s been keeping those plans paused since mid-October. While denying the agency’s motion, the judge is also ordering both parties in the lawsuit to hold a meeting to discuss a proposed clarification of the stay order. The American Federation of Government Employees has been suing USDA over the reorganization plans, and warning that the effort will lead to mass staff attrition.
