As the United States prepares for hurricane season and a summer of record-breaking heat, experts fear the Trump administration’s cuts to climate and weather data programming could make the federal government’s weather forecasts less reliable when they are needed most.

Federal workers at USDA, VA and SSA are all under threat of being spied on by "bossware" as the Trump administration seeks to eliminate the federal workforce. But workers have rights, and federal unions are fighting back.

“Determining office usage based solely on the number of staff in attendance creates a false narrative that offices are underused or underneeded. In reality, they are simply understaffed.”

🚨 Federal workers are under attack—and speaking out. FUNner Eric Antrim (NFFE Local 251, U.S. Forest Service) exposes mass job cuts, illegal firings, and the dismantling of the federal workforce under the Trump administration. 📣 Read, share, and stand with federal workers. 💪

juneauindependent.comForest Service’s mission being destroyed by Trump administration’s shakeupSimilarly, the destruction of the Forest Service may not be immediately visible during this administration, but the Forest Service has a long term mission and that mission is being destroyed by people who won’t be around to feel the consequences of their actions.

Congrats to our federal worker siblings at the VA for this big win! Collective agreements are powerful tools to exercise our rights & protect our jobs. Upholding these agreements helps shield federal workers from political & racialized retaliation. This is why unions matter. #unionstrong

UPDATE: VA Central Office is instructing facilities to return to the status quo for all AFGE-represented employees. This includes EVERYONE covered by the Master Agreement before the August 6, 2025 Termination.

Federal workers continue to stand with & stand up for all of us, because when labor is attacked, everyone loses. The Trump administration's attacks on labor burden workers trying to organize — because they know workers coming together is powerful. #unionstrong www.salon.com/2026/03/13/l...

DOGE was never about efficiency or saving $—it was about handing Social Security over to Wall Street, dismantling public services & making it impossible to hold corporations accountable. That's why federal workers have been sounding the alarm—and we won't stop fighting back. #wetookanoath

President Trump pushed for the passage of a GOP voting requirements bill, telling House Republicans that enacting the legislation will “guarantee the midterms” and reiterating that he won’t sign any other bills until it gets passed.

For decades, women have provided critical services within the federal government. Women give quality healthcare, inspect food, provide disaster relief, fight wildfires, track down polluters & help veterans. We're honored to support women that work toward a government that works for everyone.
