Donald Trump’s plan to carry out sweeping layoffs across the federal government received a green light from the U.S. Supreme Court on Tuesday. The decision lifts a lower court’s block on mass job cuts, allowing the administration to move forward with downsizing dozens of agencies. While the justices did not rule on the legality of specific layoffs, the order marks a major win for Trump’s efforts to reshape the federal workforce. Critics warn the cuts could disrupt key public services, while supporters say they’ll boost efficiency.
