"There has been a delay – not to our interests, but because of the courts," Bruce added. "It's been difficult when you know you need to get something done for the benefit of everyone. So it will be – it will be quickly."

The court order seeking to determine whether the Trump administration must publicly share the details of their planned reforms and reductions in force across the government was signed by U.S. District Court Judge Susan Illston.
