Federal employees fired under President Donald Trump's administration called on Oregon's federal lawmakers to protect them during a town hall meeting.

The article from KGW8 discusses the concerns of federal workers following the abrupt firing of several high-profile inspectors general by President Trump. These dismissals, which occurred without the customary 30-day notice to Congress, have raised alarms about potential retaliation against whistleblowers and the undermining of government oversight. Federal employees and their unions are calling for stronger legal protections to safeguard their positions and the integrity of their work. The firings have sparked a debate on the independence of inspectors general, who are meant to act as watchdogs over government operations. Critics argue that these actions could deter future oversight and accountability within federal agencies, potentially leading to unchecked misconduct or inefficiency.
