Former federal workers speak out about being fired and why they're now running for office
from PBS News Hour - Politics · host PBS News
More than three dozen former federal workers who quit or lost their jobs last year, in the wake of cuts from the Department of Government Efficiency, or DOGE, are now running for political office. Most, but not all, are Democrats who say the assault on public service led them to seek change by standing for office. We spoke with three candidates running for Congress in the upcoming midterms.
