"The readers are telling us sometimes pretty directly, we don’t want to use these tools, we don’t have an interest in them. But there continues to be this impulse from organizations to build them anyway." @andrewdeck.bsky.social ethicsandjournalism.org/2025/09/18/n...

We dug deep to answer this important question: How Many Federal Health Workers Have RFK Jr. and the Trump Administration Cut? @bxroberts.org @anniewaldman.bsky.social @pratheekrebala.bsky.social

NEW: In March, the Trump administration announced a massive purge of workers at the nation's health agencies. We asked them how many workers were laid off, pushed out or left. They refused to give us numbers. So we conducted our own analysis... 🧵 projects.propublica.org/federal-heal...

More than ‎20,500 workers have left or been pushed out of federal health agencies, a ProPublica analysis found. Staffers say the cuts will leave their agencies less equipped to conduct studies, perform inspections and combat deadly outbreaks. projects.propublica.org/federal-heal...

The administration wouldn’t tell @propublica.org — or anyone — who has been cut from federal health agencies. That’s fine. We’ve been analyzing their directories since Jan. Turns out, we’ve lost thousands of scientists, regulators and other crucial roles. projects.propublica.org/federal-heal...

Far from the most pressing issue right now, but it's disappointing that OPM has put their data dictionaries behind a gov login wall. There was nothing confidential in it, and it was super useful for working with gov HR data. cc: @digiphile.bsky.social @jacobharr.is www.opm.gov/policy-data-...
