Another Resignation from Justice

Continuous attacks from the Musk team have demoralized long time federal employees, who are being driven out by harassment.

 

Team OlT,

Today is my last day with EOIR/OIT. It is with a heavy heart that I write to inform you of my decision to take the resignation and retirement offer from the Office of Personnel Management (OPM). This was not an easy decision for me, and I have spent considerable time reflecting on all of the tweets, posts, news casts, emails and other communications about lack of performance under previous administrations.
I want to be clear that my decision is not political. My service to the nation has never been about politics. I am simply a person who loved his job and cherished the opportunity to come to work every day to witness the remarkable achievements of this incredible team. Your dedication and hard work have always been the driving force behind my passion for this job.
As some of you may know, I am a 100% Disabled Veteran, my mental and physical well being have been negatively impacted by the relentless stream of unwarranted criticism and negative remarks we have all been enduring for the last several weeks. It has become increasingly difficult to cope with the harsh and unfounded comments directed at myself and our team. These relentless attacks have deeply affected me, overshadowing the tremendous successes we have achieved together.

As a result, I have come to the painful realization that it is no longer healthy for me to remain in this position and that it is time for me to step away. It breaks my heart to leave, but I must prioritize my well-being. I am deeply grateful for the time I have spent here and for the incredible dedication and hard work of this team.

I will truly miss working with each and every one of you. The camaraderie and collaboration we shared have been the highlights of my career. I hope that our paths will cross again in the future, and that you continue to achieve great things together.
Thank you for the wonderful memories and the incredible journey we have had. I wish you all the best in your future endeavors.
Sincerely,

--Joshua
