This is important because it helps frame the program as illegal (which it is) for people who were considering it. And though it's only an extension, it cuts the Musk administration off at the knees. The rollout has been an unmitigated disaster and this is the consequence.
JUST IN: A federal judge in Massachusetts has ordered a block on the Fork "deferred resignation" program until additional litigation can take place.
