Federal workers Union extends Legal Challenge to secrecy pledge Washington a a labor Union that rep resents Federal employees filed suit tuesday to broaden a Legal Challenge to the Reagan administration s use of controversial secrecy pledges governing classified information. The suit filed by the american federation of govern ment employees an affiliate of the Al Cio and Ihrck Pentagon workers challenges on constitutional ground the use Ofa secrecy pledge known As Standard form 189. A similar lawsuit attacking the use of that form was Fried aug. 17 by the National federation of Federal employees. The new lawsuit expands on that action however by challenging the use of another form known As of 4193 for workers who hold the highest possible Security clearance and also by contesting demands by some agencies that workers sign of 189 even when they Don t hold a Security clearance. The suit further contests inc government s use of a Dif Ferent More in incl form for the employees of defens contractors who hold a Security clearance the required execution of the forms by government workers. Is violative of the first amendment to the . Constitution s Protection against abridgement of free Dom of Spych and the right to petition Congress states the suit filed in . District court Here. Standard form 189 has been in use by some govern ment agencies since 1985. But it was Only within the past year after the Pentagon began enforcing demands hat it be signed that its use became Public knowledge an congressional committees began investigating the matter. The Reagan administration maintains the form is Sim ply designed to underline the obligations of Federal workers to protect classified information. The document asks work in 10 acknowledge the government s right to fire them or to prosecute them on criminal charges or releasing Classi fied or classifiable information. Democratic Leaden in Congress assert however the form is so broadly worded thai employees arc being asked to sign away their rights. Rep. John d. Dingell d-mich., the chairman of the House Energy and Commerce com Mittee argues that by including the term classifiable in the form the government can lire a worker for releasing information that has t even been classified. The of 189, in violation of the first amendment exposes an employee to liability for releasing information from Public sources which become  sources were published or even declassified information that has entered the Public Domain the age Suil complains. As for of 4193, the suit says an old version of that form is still being used thai contains a pre put cation pledge for employees cleared to handled sensitive Compart merited information the highest secrecy category. The provision requires such workers to submit any Book or article they write to the government for a Security re View. That amounts loan unlawful prior restraint on the exercise of first amendment rights and a virulent scheme of licensing and censorship the age said in its court papers. The suit also asserted that no government Agency can justify asking employees who Don t hold a Security Clear Ance to sign of 189. The air Force recently acknowledged it had been follow ing such a practice for More than a year. White a worker without a clearance who refused to sign the form did not face dismissal the refusal could prevent the worker from moving into a Job that did require a clearance the air Force said. The information Security oversight office an obscure Agency attached to the general services administration thai developed the form recently informed the air Force the form was never meant for employees without a Clear Ance and ordered the practice stopped. Because of the Legal challenges the Isoo also has or dered All Federal agencies to temporarily Stop revoking the Security clearances of employees who refuse toting sf189
