T he Supreme Court is allowing President Donald Trump to move forward with an executive order mandating a restructure of federal agencies and mass layoffs of federal workers.

The Supreme Court on Tuesday cleared the way for the Trump administration to fire federal workers. The big picture: The decision, which lifts a federal judge's earlier order freezing the cuts, gives the administration power to resume its goal of reshaping and scaling back federal agencies.

Justices lifted pause on efforts to slash jobs at federal agencies, including the CDC and the Social Security Administration.
