The article outlines the controversy and concern surrounding layoffs within the National Park Service, as hundreds of employees have been dismissed, predominantly under the Trump Administration. This situation has prompted fears about the management of national parks, as facilities may struggle to remain open and adequately maintained. Former superintendent Don Neubacher emphasizes the dire state of affairs and its potential impact on visitor experiences. Although the National Park Service plans to reinstate some seasonal jobs, uncertainty about operational capability remains high, leading to widespread apprehension among staff and visitors alike.
This is going to really be a tipping point for them so they're going to struggle immensely to try and keep facilities open, but they're not going to be able to do it. It's going to be that bad!
They did lose staff so some were fired recently and they are all heartbreakers. Matter of fact, I was out watching the elephant seals and I was talking to one staff member that is still there but she is worried that she's going to get fired.
If the funding isn't impaired and the parks have to have restrictions on visitors it's a sad thing, it's troubling.
This is not an office building. If you don't empty the trash, no big deal. You don't empty the trash in a park, and it affects the environment.
