What is the impact of the recent federal worker firings on health services and public safety?
The recent federal worker firings have resulted in approximately 5,200 job cuts across key agencies including the CDC, USDA, and FDA. At the CDC alone, nearly 1,300 probationary employees are being forced to quit, with some cuts potentially jeopardizing the World Trade Center health program for 9/11 first responders. The situation has become so concerning that some officials, like the head of the FDA's food division, have resigned in protest, citing that these firings demonstrate disdain for essential personnel needed to improve Americans' health.
