Walkinshaw | W000831 | walkinshaw.house.gov | walkinshaw | https://walkinshaw.house.gov/news/documentquery.aspx?DocumentTypeID=27 | scraper | Washington, D.C. – Today, Congressman James R. Walkinshaw (VA-11) issued the following statement responding to U.S. Office of Personnel Management Director Scott Kupor’s misleading claim that nearly 97% of departing federal workers “voluntarily” left civil service rather than being coerced by the Trump administration. “Federal workers were hit with DOGE, watched agencies shutter, were threatened with imminent Reductions in Force, demagogued, and bombarded with those mindless “5 things” emails. Nothing about that was voluntary — the Fork in the Road was coercion.” ### | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-06T20:09:11Z |
