Federal workers sue over Elon Musk's threat

Federal workers sue over Elon Musk's threat to fire them if they don't
explain their accomplishments

 Billionaire Trump adviser Elon Musk violated the law with his weekend
demand that federal employees explain their accomplishments or risk
being fired, attorneys for the workers said Monday in a lawsuit.

The updated lawsuit, which was filed in federal court in California
and was provided to The Associated Press, is trying to block mass
layoffs pursued by Musk and President Donald Trump, including any
connected to the email distributed by the Office of Personnel
Management on Saturday. The office, which functions as a human
resources agency for the federal government, said employees needed to
detail five things they did last week by the end of day on Monday.

"No OPM rule, regulation, policy, or program has ever, in United
States history, purported to require all federal workers to submit
reports to OPM," said the amended complaint, which was filed on behalf
of unions, businesses veterans, and conservation organizations
represented by the group State Democracy Defenders Fund. It called the
threat of mass firings "one of the most massive employment frauds in
the history of this country."
