Today an email went out to the agency announcing that our Alternative Work Schedules option that we have always had available is ending effective 11/16/26. So the people who work 4 10’s or 5/4/9 schedules, usually approved for family reasons, have a month ish to rearrange their entire life. Cool. 🤬🤬

If Trump just takes money appropriated by Congress for a specific purpose & seizes it to use it for an entirely different purpose, what is the point of having a Congress or appropriating money for anything? I’m sure the Senate Appropriations Chair Susan Collins must be concerned.

Looks like Trump’s new “steel plant” in IA, announced to shore up support in midterms from people his policies have crushed, where he said construction has already begun, is nowhere close to happening and contingent on Iowans giving tax breaks & incentives to a company in India.
