Thousands of Department of Homeland Security workers recently won an important court victory that protects collective bargaining rights and prevents the department from implementing new personnel rules. The National treasury Employees Union's Colleen Kelly says if the Bush administration continues to attack worker's bargaining rights the NTEU will continue to fight, including going back to court if necessary…

[Colleen Kelly] : "If we believe that the statute - the Homeland Security Act - is not being followed, that the administration is continuing to overstep its bounds of the authority given to it by Congress, then yes NTEU will be fighting. We will use every tool available that we have to us to insure that the department does the right thing - both for the department and for employees."
