Probationary employees across several federal health agencies within the Department of Health and Human Services on Saturday were notified of their termination through nearly identical letters. The letters informed them that their positions would be ending, marking a widespread reduction in staffing within these agencies.
The letter, which was obtained by CBS News, stated: "Unfortunately, the Agency finds that you are not fit for continued employment because your ability, knowledge, and skills do not fit the Agency's current needs, and your performance has not been adequate to justify further employment at the Agency."
