It is deeply concerning that the Trump administration fired nuclear safety workers without proper protocols in place to effectively manage staffing changes at the National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA). Maintaining a well-staffed and functioning NNSA is critical for overseeing and safeguarding our nation's nuclear stockpile, especially during heightened global tensions. The abrupt terminations, followed by the scramble to reinstate workers due to lack of contact information, reflects a reckless disregard for national security procedures. I urge you to conduct rigorous oversight and take necessary steps to ensure the NNSA remains fully operational with qualified personnel in place to fulfill its vital mission of managing our nuclear capabilities responsibly and safely. Hasty staffing disruptions at this sensitive agency jeopardize national interests and public safety.
