The Agency has identified that you have a collateral duty/role of being an Information Security System Officer (ISSO) and that because of that they want to strip you of your rights to join the union and be represented under the protection of our contract. This would impact your ability to telework, your rights to disciplinary defense, among dozens of other protections the Union has fought for and secured in the contract. We are not sure that this is permissible under law, so we wanted to reach out to you, have you answer some questions, so we can figure out a strategy from here.
