A federal union raises alarms about the Forest Service reorganization and planned move to Utah

A federal union is raising alarms about the Trump administration’s planned reorganization of the Forest Service.

The Forest Service reorganization will impact about 6,500 federal employees. Union officials say the relocations will almost certainly lead some of those employees to quit their jobs.
