WASHINGTON, DC – Today, Senator Angela Alsobrooks (D-Md.) issued the following statement after news that the Trump Administration is directing federal agencies to fire probationary staff.
“This callous and cruel witch hunt isn’t about making government more efficient. It’s about enacting this President’s retribution on civil servants and the people they serve — the American people. It’s a disgraceful series of actions meant to upend American lives, cut American jobs, and destroy the American spirit that calls so many of us to serve in this way.”
