President Donald Trump signed a memo on Friday that would nullify the collective bargaining agreements put in place by former President Joe Biden before leaving office, according to a report.

The memo will instruct federal agencies to reject the last-minute collective bargaining agreements issued by the Biden administration—a move that White House officials claim was intended to “constrain” the Trump administration’s efforts to reform the government, Fox News reported.

The memo prohibits agencies from establishing new collective bargaining agreements during the final 30 days of a president’s term and instructs agency heads to reject any agreements approved by Biden during that time.

Fox added that the White House said collective bargaining agreements enacted before that time period will remain in effect while the Trump administration “negotiates a better deal for the American people.”

In December 2024, Martin O’Malley, Biden’s Social Security Administration Commissioner, reached an in-office work agreement with the American Federation of Government Employees for the agency’s 42,000 employees.

The White House told Fox News Digital that the new policy “ensures the American people get the policies they voted for, instead of being stuck with the wasteful and ineffective Biden policies rejected at the ballot box.”

“The outgoing Biden administration negotiated lame-duck, multi-year collective bargaining agreements — during the week before the inauguration — in an attempt to tie the incoming Trump administration’s hands,” says a White House fact sheet on the memo sent to Fox News.
