IFPTE Lawsuit Filed on Behalf of NASA Unions

11/1/2025

 
On October 8, 2025, our parent union, IFPTE, filed a lawsuit in District Court against the Trump Administration’s August 28th executive order which targeted NASA and other federal agencies, revoking union bargaining rights for GESTA and other NASA unions by claiming that NASA’s  primary purpose was national security. This IFPTE lawsuit argues that not only is NASA’s purpose clearly not primarily national security, but that NASA unions were illegally targeted in retaliation for pushing back against the administration's actions. The lawsuit names as plaintiffs, President Trump and Acting NASA administrator Sean Duffy and asks the implementation of the Executive Order be halted and for NASA union rights to be restored. You can read the full complaint here  and IFPTE’s press release on the lawsuit here. The lawsuit has also been covered in the press. We will keep our members posted on this ongoing litigation which directly impacts their rights. Members can also track the status of this case on Court Listener, where many of the case documents, including any future rulings will be posted.
