Prince George's and Charles Counties, notable for their wealthy majority-Black populations and high homeownership rates, face economic challenges due to recent federal job cuts initiated by the Trump administration. Many local residents are federal employees, often viewed as a strong pathway to the middle class. The reporting team seeks to gather insights from affected individuals about their experiences with job loss or resignation, and how these changes have impacted their ability to maintain homeownership and contribute to the Black middle class.
Neighboring Prince George's and Charles Counties are wealthiest Black communities, but federal job cuts under Trump threaten homeownership and the Black middle class.
We want to hear from residents about their experiences as federal workers amidst reductions, particularly focusing on how job losses impact homeownership.
