A nonpartisan academic team is collecting the experiences of departed federal employees: why people left and what that means for the government. Confidential, IRB-approved, and it takes about 20 minutes. Former feds, your perspective matters: pitt.co1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_...

As we close out Public Service Recognition Week, let’s remember that the work does not end here. This week, we told stories and put faces to the numbers - the thousands of public servants laid off, the programs dismantled, the communities left without critical services.

Public Service Recognition Week is the right moment to say what we’ve all been thinking: the cuts on the federal workforce are already reshaping American life, but most people haven't connected the dots yet.
