The Supreme Court stayed a lower court judge’s order forcing the Trump administration to reinstate more than 16,000 probationary federal employees.
The Supreme Court move will keep the employees off the payroll while lower courts resolve the underlying question of the firings’ legality.
Two Democrat-appointed justices, Sonia Sotomayor and Ketanji Brown Jackson, would have denied the government’s application for a stay.
The Supreme Court’s order does not explicitly involve federal employees in another case. A federal judge in Maryland earlier this month issued a preliminary injunction reinstating some of the employees not covered in the Supreme Court case.
The move comes amid a slew of judges issuing nationwide injunctions purporting to tie the president’s hands on a wide range of issues.
