Yep, for sure. The tradeoff was supposed to be the higher protections that come with competitive service positions, but those protections are being ignored or illegally removed week by week, so yeah at this point anyone should be allowed to join the union.
But to be honest? Its looking more and more like the admin is going to break binding union agreements as well so maybe it’s all just fucked.
