An open letter to the U.S. Congress

DOGE Fired Over 24 Thousand Essential Employees? This Is Unacceptable

3 so far! Help us get to 5 signers!

More than 24,000 federal employees have been rehired after your so-called “streamlining” removed 260,000 positions. That’s nearly 1 in 10 jobs reinstated. These are not numbers that reflect success—they reflect failure. This isn’t belt-tightening. It’s incompetence. It’s reckless, destructive policymaking that disrupted vital government services and is now being quietly reversed with no accountability. The result? Agencies like FEMA, USDA, and the CDC are struggling to repair the damage—delays in health and safety inspections, reduced public service capacity, and deep damage to trust in our government. American families live with the consequences of federal dysfunction. They deserve better than this chaos. P.S. Clinton cut over 400,000 federal jobs gradually and mostly voluntarily—with no need for mass rehiring later. They also did not leave agencies in turmoil. DOGE isn’t just mismanagement—it’s clear evidence of ideological incompetence. P.S.S. There are 497 days until midterms
