Walkinshaw Statement on CISA Employees Reinstated After Being Wrongly Targeted by Trump's DHS

Washington, D.C. -- Today, Congressman James R. Walkinshaw (VA-11) issued the following statement after employees at the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) were reinstated and cleared of all wrongdoing following their wrongful suspension by Trump's Department of Homeland Security (DHS). “I’ve been demanding answers after CISA staff were punished by Trump’s DHS and CISA leadership for simply doing their jobs. I pressed CISA’s Acting Director this week to make this right. Today, those employees were cleared of wrongdoing and invited back to work. Nonpartisan civil servants should never be targeted for political reasons.” ###
