In Washington D.C., protesters took to the streets on Wednesday, February 19, to challenge the latest wave of federal government worker dismissals, this time targeting the scientific community.
Participants voiced their concerns over the potential loss of valuable expertise and the impact these firings could have on ongoing scientific research and governmental initiatives. The demonstrators called for transparency and reconsideration of the decisions affecting dedicated federal employees.
CGTN’s Poppie Mphuthing covered the event, highlighting the collective efforts of the protesters to support their colleagues and advocate for the preservation of key scientific roles within the federal workforce.
