Mr. President. Stop breaking the law.

The shutdown does not give you the right to fire thousands of hard working federal employees.

Instead of giving huge tax breaks to your billionaire friends, show some respect for the struggling working families of our country.

It’s happening…

Thousands more federal workers are getting pink slips. This is 100% Trump’s pressure play to make Democrats cave and give up the fight for our healthcare.

Reminder: Military members got their last paycheck today, and many federal workers only got a partial paycheck.

Laurie Eckman, 84, and her husband Richard Eckman, also 84 and a Vietnam war veteran, were rushed by federal officers “for no apparent reason.” Her husband was leaning on his walker and wearing his Vietnam veterans cap as he was pushed to the ground. www.oregonlive.com/politics/202...

And the lawsuits will follow promptly. Government shutdowns give presidents no additional authority to dismiss federal workers. We’ll fight these outrageous assaults on civil servants and public services.
