- A Democratic former member of the federal agency that enforces U.S. laws banning workplace discrimination filed a lawsuit on Wednesday claiming her firing by President Donald Trump was illegal and seeking to be reinstated to her post.

Jocelyn Samuels, one of two members of the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission fired by Trump on Jan. 27, said he lacked the power to remove her from office, an unprecedented move that has rendered the five-member commission unable to do much of its work.
