"EPA Fires Nearly 400 Workers After OPM Order"

"The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has fired nearly 400 employees after a directive from the Office of Personnel Management (OPM).

The EPA told The Hill in a written statement that it has “terminated” 388 probationary employees — meaning workers who started working at the agency within the past year.

It said the firings came “after a thorough review of agency functions in accordance with President Trump’s executive orders.”"

Rachel Frazin reports for The Hill February 14, 2025.
