Abstract

The article focuses on the successful unionization of federal employees at Yosemite and Sequoia & Kings Canyon national parks with the National Federation of Federal Employees (NFFE), where over 97% of ballots cast favored unionization. This move comes in response to significant workforce reductions and challenges posed by the Trump administration, which has sought to limit the power of federal unions. The National Park Service has seen a 24% decrease in its permanent workforce, leading to concerns about staffing and resources. Union representatives are currently excluded from key decision-making processes regarding workforce changes, and while the future of collective bargaining rights remains uncertain, NFFE leadership expresses determination to restore these rights.
