Trump’s Firing Of Probationary Federal Workers Based On 'A Lie'

Huff Post  

LOADING ERROR LOADING Michelle Kirchner was just a few weeks away from making it through her probationary period with the Agriculture Department when she was fired Friday via email, ending what she’d considered a dream job with the federal government. Like other civil servants ousted by the Trump administration, Kirchner was outraged by the stated reason for her termination: “Based on your performance, you have not demonstrated that your further employment at the Agency would be in the public interest.” Kirchner called that rationale “a blatant lie.” “It’s incredibly offensive,” said the 31-year-old, who researched the effects pest control methods have on pollinators in alfalfa fields. I feel almost like I’m defending my reputation.” The Trump administration apparently views probationary employees like Kirchner as low-hanging fruit in their effort to decimate the federal workforce. “I feel almost like I’m defending my reputation.” - Michelle Kirchner, fired Agriculture Department employee Even though probationary employees don’t have the same job security as permanent employees, they are still owed administrative due process before they can be let go. ROBERTO SCHMIDT via Getty Images In addition to firing probationary workers, the White House has also tried to push workers out through a legally shaky deferred resignation program known as “Fork in the Road.” The program purportedly offers those who resign several months of pay for doing little or no work, even though Congress hasn’t appropriated funds beyond March 14.
