Trump is also using national security to justify the cuts. California has more than 60,000 civilian @DeptofDefense workers. How does this help them? These cuts are nothing more than a way to pay for his reckless $1.5 trillion tax cut.pic.twitter.com/Z7nIwmuOC7

30% of these federal employees are Veterans as well
What is Congress going to do to push back on these pay freezes for our civil servants who help protect us, our environment, & help make our National Parks run

About time someone slowed down the lazy federal employees income. Trump might be an idiot as a politician but he knows how to run a business and the tax cuts slowed your reckless spending down.
