Congresswoman Gwen Moore Blasts Milwaukee VA Firings, Calls for Elon Musk to Be Fired

Elon Musk’s DOGE scheme fired 10 employees at Zablocki VA Medical Center in Milwaukee, including at least three veterans. In response, Congresswoman Moore released the following statement:

By U.S. Rep. Gwen Moore - Feb 25th, 2025 02:15 pm

“To the richest man in the world and President Donald Trump, VA services and veterans are waste, fraud, and abuse.

I strongly disagree. These indiscriminate firings completely undermine our commitment to our veterans.

Instead of firing veterans, it is time to fire Elon Musk.”
