The actions taken by Elon Musk and President Trump towards federal workers are deeply concerning. Locking career civil servants out of critical computer systems that contain sensitive personal information raises serious cybersecurity risks and compromises government oversight. This appears to be an attempt to force federal employees out by revoking access and stripping control away from experienced personnel. Such actions undermine the integrity and continuity of federal operations. We must ensure the federal workforce can perform their duties without undue interference or retaliation. I urge you to take immediate action to halt these concerning activities, restore access for career officials, and allow federal agencies to function properly under appropriate oversight and established protocols. Protecting our federal workers and the security of government systems should be a top priority.
