In his initial days as president, Donald Trump enacted executive orders that alarmed numerous federal employees by introducing potential layoffs, a freeze on hiring, and new office return requirements. His decision to place employees in diversity roles on paid leave drew considerable attention, alongside the appointment of Elon Musk to lead a Department of Government Efficiency. These changes especially impact California, home to approximately 250,000 federal workers, with many closely monitoring further developments. Mixed responses emerge from local veterans and workers, indicating both concern and skepticism about the long-term implications of these orders.
