Federal Government -- Line to get into the HHS building(s)
Federal Government
“Line to get into the HHS building(s)”
By Prince Of Petworth
Published April 1, 2025 at 9:25AM | Updated April 1, 2025 at 10:46AM
A reader reports just after 9am:
“At least 100 people in line to get into the cap hill HHS building this morning. Absolutely NUTS cannot imagine having to work under that environment.”
And another reader sends a photo from a different HHS satellite building with another long line:
Fishers lane Rockville
AP reported:
“Employees across the massive U.S. Health and Human Services Department began receiving notices of dismissal on Tuesday in an overhaul ultimately expected to lay off up to 10,000 people. The notices come just days after President Donald Trump moved to strip workers of their collective bargaining rights at HHS and other agencies throughout the government.”
