Several recently fired federal employees will attend President Trump's joint address to Congress as guests of Democratic lawmakers. The attendees, including Matthew Fessler, a former Medicare waste investigator, seek to underscore the adverse effects of the Trump administration's early workforce cuts. Lawmakers like Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer and Rep. Ayanna Pressley are using this event to spotlight the consequences of these firings on government efficiency and public service. The initiative reflects a broader effort to critique the administration's approach to federal workforce management during the address.
"I ran on common sense, common ground, and I really agree that our government should run efficiently and effectively for the American people," McClain Delaney told BI in an interview on Monday.
"The impact of his administration's early moves to reshape the bureaucracy and freeze streams of federal spending" highlighted by attending former federal workers.
