If you are planning to visit national parks this summer...

You may be disappointed. Trump's EO on fed job hiring is impacting national park workers.

Last week, the seasonal workers who staff 433 national parks and historical sites, including Yosemite, Death Valley and Joshua Tree, began receiving emails saying their job offers for the 2025 season had been “rescinded,” with little further explanation.

On the chopping block are hundreds — and potentially thousands — of park rangers who respond to medical emergencies, as well as visitor center employees and the crews that clean bathrooms and empty garbage cans.

In many of the larger and most popular parks, seasonal workers outnumber year-round permanent employees, making it hard to imagine how the parks will function without them,

I have to wonder how many of these folks voted for Trump. But, I'm sure they think it's worth it.

That's too bad. I wonder if the NPS will limit entries and access to manage safety/cleaning and maintenance standards due to this.

Yeah. This is the FAFO part of electing Trump as President.

IIRC, the last time he did this the parks were still open but there was no trash collection or other services so they were basically turning into landfills.
