During the last few weeks, we have seen an all-out assault on the public sector workforce by the Trump administration, particularly by Elon Musk’s DOGE. This has led to mass layoffs of career and probationary staff at several key federal agencies in charge of keeping people of the United States safe such as HHS, USAID, FAA, NNSA, EPA, CDC, and more.
These attacks on our federal workforce are unwarranted and unprecedented and has already led to a sharp increase in unemployment, particularly in the Washington, DC metro area.
We must not allow an unelected fascist billionaire to gut our government and undermine our basic constitutional rights without public input and congressional oversight.
Let’s gather along with other federal labor unions, unorganized federal workers, contractors and community supporters to help raise some hardship funds for those who are directly affected by this assault.
