Federal employees arein a terrible position. During this longest-in-our-nation’s-history government shutdown, those deemed “essential” can either go to work with no idea when they’ll see a paycheck or face discipline. The law is not on their side thanks to provisions in the Taft Hartley Act of 1947, which delivered a wave of restrictions on workers power.
