On September 29, 2017, President Trump signed Executive Order 13812, which revoked Executive Order 13579 established by President Obama in 2011. EO 13579 had created federal labor-management forums designed to improve communication between federal agencies and unions representing federal employees. The revocation eliminated these structured forums, reducing formal mechanisms for federal employee unions to engage directly with agency leadership on workplace matters.
