John,
I want to talk to you about RIFs — also known as a Reduction in Force, a
fancy term for the mass firing of federal workers.
Russell Vought, Trump’s Director of the Office of Management and Budget
and the key architect behind Project 2025, is bragging about how he plans
to lay off thousands more federal employees.
They’re trying to blame Democrats and the government shutdown — even
though they control everything — so they can do what they have always
dreamed of doing, tearing down and destroying the government. So that
their wealthy patrons can control everything. Because the truth is — there
is nothing about the shutdown that requires the president to fire people.
Yes, some people are being temporarily furloughed until the shutdown ends.
Yes, Trump is threatening to withhold their back pay.
And yes, the law requires them to be paid once a shutdown ends.
But firing all these federal workers is blatantly illegal. The largest
number of firings from this administration took place well before the
shutdown even started. They’ve already fired over 50,000 federal workers
in the first nine months of this administration, and pushed out over
200,000 federal workers in total.
Now, I take personal interest in this because so many Californians are
affected. In fact, we have more federal workers in California than in any
other state. But all of us are going to be affected.
The firings at the CDC mean you are not as protected from deadly viruses.
The firings at the Forest Service mean we are more vulnerable to
wildfires.
The firings at the FDA mean you are not as safe from dangerous products
being put on grocery store and drug store shelves.
The firings at the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau mean you are not
as protected from being ripped off by large corporations.
These RIFs are going to affect everyone — but Donald Trump couldn’t care
less about the harm he is causing. In fact, he’s reveling in it. He just
wants to inflict more pain on a group of people who he believes didn’t
vote for him in the last election.

Senate, and I will continue to fight for them, no matter what. Please chip
in to help me keep up this fight.
