Federal Workers

Commerce Department employees caught up in a legal battle over their mass firings are now learning that their health care coverage was cut off weeks ago, even though they were paying their premiums.

The Supreme Court's stay, which allows the administration to execute the firings for now, while it litigates in federal court, does not mean the terminations were lawful.

The Trump administration is firing hundreds and perhaps thousands of federal workers as part of a crackdown on diversity, equity and inclusion efforts. Many of the fired weren't in DEI jobs.

As agencies scramble to comply with President Trump's Jan. 20 order terminating remote work, employees say the process has been marked by confusion, changing guidance and frustrating conditions.

President Trump's administration has fired more than 20,000 federal workers. How does the federal workforce compare with those of other countries?

The U.S. Department of Agriculture must temporarily reinstate nearly 6,000 probationary employees fired since Feb. 13, according to a ruling by the Merit Systems Protection Board.

Federal employees have received a second email from the Office of Personnel Management asking them what they did last week.

U.S. Special Counsel Hampton Dellinger has asked the Merit Systems Protection Board to temporarily reinstate six federal employees fired from their jobs and is considering ways to seek relief for others.

More than 10,000 federal employees who had yet to complete their probationary periods have been fired by the Trump administration, including those who work to protect American agriculture.

As many as 1,300 probationary employees at CDC and 1,500 at NIH are losing their jobs. Many fear for the future of public health and scientific research.
