A federal judge has ruled that former President Donald Trump unlawfully removed two Democratic members, Todd Harper and Tanya Otsuka, from the National Credit Union Administration (NCUA) board.
The court ordered their immediate reinstatement, finding that the firings violated legal protections for independent agency officials. The Trump administration has appealed the decision, seeking to delay the reinstatement. The ruling has been praised by Democratic lawmakers, including Senator Elizabeth Warren, as a win for agency independence.
The case highlights ongoing tensions over presidential authority and the independence of federal regulatory bodies.
