AFSCME’s Saunders on SCOTUS decision: We remain undeterred in our commitment to defend our freedoms and democracy

“The Supreme Court has again ruled to overturn decades of precedent to appease a president hellbent on breaking the law. Stripping courts of their authority to issue nationwide injunctions dangerously limits their ability to stop the ongoing abuse of power, which threatens our fundamental freedoms and the very foundations of our democracy. This takes the presidency further from the vision of the founders and closer to the tyranny they fought to escape. As the administration tries to stall justice, they cannot change the fact that their actions are illegal — as we have proven time and time again in federal courts nationwide. Despite their desperate efforts to evade accountability, we remain undeterred and will keep fighting to protect our freedoms and secure justice for all working people.”
