In response to the release of new guidance from the Office of Special Counsel that talking about impeachment or “the Resistance” may constitute prohibited activity under the Hatch Act, AFGE president J. David Cox Sr. said it was simply “another attempt to intimidate and harass” federal workers. Adding that he fears it will be used to empower “already over-emboldened agency managers” to target and intimidate federal employees and potential whistleblowers, Cox said that “President Trump is yet again overstepping his authority as President” and called on the administration “to immediately reverse this attack on free speech.”
