 Sept. 17, 2025 | US GOVERNMENT | […] Employees at the department and labor advocates say the Trump administration is undermining the agency’s mission to foster and promote the welfare of job seekers, wage earners, and retirees through drastic cuts, deregulations that include pay cuts for workers, and mistreatment of those employed at the agency. About 20% of staff at the US Department of Labor have resigned or retired ahead of threatened cuts at the agency. Morale has plummeted at the national office amid all the cuts at the agency, threats, harassment and intimidation from the administration, and new policies, such as security bag screenings to get into the building every day, said workers.
