Protect integrity of federal workforce from illegal overreach

To: Sen. Gonzalez, Assembly Member Gallagher, Gov. Hochul

From: A constituent in Brooklyn, NY

February 1, 2025

The federal workforce is under unprecedented attack, facing harassment, data breaches, and outsiders seizing control of government systems. Unauthorized individuals have installed illegal servers at the Office of Personnel Management (OPM), compromising employee data. Musk's associates, who lack security clearances, have locked civil servants out of their computers and networks. Federal employees, including disabled veterans, are being insulted, pressured to resign, and stripped of support programs under false pretenses. This jeopardizes the vital services these public servants provide, from protecting national security to caring for veterans. Urgent action is needed to safeguard the federal workforce and uphold the integrity of public service. A comprehensive investigation into the OPM breaches must identify culprits and hold them accountable. Congress must provide oversight on the resignation policies, confirm job protections during potential shutdowns, and prevent further overreach. Legal challenges should counter violations of employment laws and civil rights. Stronger security measures are critical to block unauthorized access to personnel data and financial systems. The American people rely on these dedicated employees every day - it is unacceptable to allow unelected outsiders to undermine their work through unethical actions that may be illegal. Immediate intervention is imperative to defend those who serve the nation honorably.
