Federal Workers Told To Halt External Communication In First Week Under Trump

[Lakhota]

Staff have been told to stop talking to Congress and the press.

WASHINGTON ― Multiple federal agencies have told their employees to cease communications with members of Congress and the press, sources have told The Huffington Post.

The freeze has startled aides on the Hill and people at those agencies, who worry that it could abruptly upend current operations and stifle work and discussions that routinely take place between branches of government.

Officials at sub-agencies of the Department of Health and Human Services, for example, have been told not to send “any correspondence to public officials” according to a memo shared with HuffPost. Instead, they have been asked to refer questions to agency leadership until the leadership has had time to meet with incoming White House staff about the new administration’s policies and objectives, according to a congressional official who was also informed of the communications freeze.

An official with the National Institutes of Health told HuffPost after the initial publication of this piece that an email had been sent to the directors of NIH institutes and centers providing guidance from HHS on how to handle new or pending regulation, policy or guidance.

No wonder federal employees are startled. Private citizens should also be startled.

"they have been asked to refer questions to agency leadership until the leadership has had time to meet with incoming White House staff about the new administration’s policies and objectives,"


^^^^from your own c&p


so, the incoming administration doesn't want business to continue on the same path it was, considering that it has a vastly different orientation than the previous administration, and has asked for a pause to implement it's policies and make sure they're clear to people going forward.

well, shit, that's just crazy talk. /sarcasm



IMO, this was a smart move by Trump.
