This is a significant development! The **Merit Systems Protection Board (MSPB)** stepping in to reinstate nearly 6,000 USDA workers suggests serious concerns about the legality of these mass firings. It’s good to see oversight in action, ensuring due process for federal employees. Hopefully, the ongoing investigation brings more clarity to the situation.
