I don't think the Dems can stop the firings. But why aren't they proposing legislation that assures those that took the buyout get paid , and that all that are fired, get at least a year severance and health benefits? And any one with a health condition is covered the entire time they are sick?

@lawrenceodonnell.msnbc.com had Anna Linn, former USAID contract worker, laid off by the thoughtless DOGE knife. She worked on reducing malaria deaths. It is consistent with her deep Christian faith. The program was started by GW Bush era USAID to address the 600000 malaria deaths per year.
