The Government Accountability Office has launched a review into the health and safety effects of the mass firings under the Trump administration, following a request from Democratic lawmakers led by Sen. Elizabeth Warren. This investigation aims to assess the potential risks and consequences of such actions on federal employees and the general public. As concerns about workplace safety and employee well-being continue to grow, this review is expected to shed light on the impact of these firings. With the support of prominent lawmakers, this inquiry may lead to significant changes in government policies and procedures, prioritizing worker safety and health in the federal sector, including occupational health and employee protection.
