As the Trump administration moves to slash thousands of government jobs, Rep. Clay Higgins, R-La., issued a message to federal workers facing joblessness, expressing empathy for their situation while also asserting that bureaucracies have been “cannibalizing” the country.
Higgins, who has served as a House lawmaker since 2017, also declared that federal workers’ jobs were not more important than other Americans’ private sector jobs.
“I’m a compassionate man. I know loss and struggle, I understand financial hardship, I know what it is to face eviction, I know hunger, I’ve lived through despair,” Higgins noted in a post on X.
In another recent tweet, Higgins said, “Hey, bureaucrats… Wake up and pack up. America is pretty much done with you and your elitist attitude. You’re being daily weighed in the balances, and found wanting.”
