Patty Murray Photo: Sen. Murray website<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Today, U.S. Senator Patty Murray (D-WA), Vice Chair of the Senate Appropriations Committee, issued the following statement on President Trump signing a new executive order ordering massive, careless job cuts to federal agencies that are already understaffed\u2014and are struggling to keep up with the demand for their services from the American people.<\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cDonald Trump and Elon Musk have never waited in line at a Social Security office or tried to get health care at the VA\u2014and their reckless assault on our federal workforce shows that they sure couldn\u2019t care less about the people who do. Arbitrary staffing cuts across government are the exact opposite of efficient; they will just make it harder for taxpayers to get the essential services they have earned.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.murray.senate.gov\/senator-murray-statement-on-trump-eo-ordering-reckless-mass-firings-at-critical-agencies-that-serve-americans\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">More on her statement here.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Senator Patty Murray responds to &#8220;Fork in the road&#8221; email offer, and arbitrary firings<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1970,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[18],"tags":[],"kp-content-permissions":[],"class_list":["post-1968","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/www.narfe.org\/wa\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2025\/02\/murray.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.narfe.org\/wa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1968","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.narfe.org\/wa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.narfe.org\/wa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.narfe.org\/wa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.narfe.org\/wa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1968"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/www.narfe.org\/wa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1968\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1974,"href":"https:\/\/www.narfe.org\/wa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1968\/revisions\/1974"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.narfe.org\/wa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1970"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.narfe.org\/wa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1968"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.narfe.org\/wa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1968"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.narfe.org\/wa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1968"},{"taxonomy":"kp-content-permissions","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.narfe.org\/wa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/kp-content-permissions?post=1968"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
