                           DEMANDING ANSWERS

  (Mr. SUBRAMANYAM asked and was given permission to address the House 
for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. SUBRAMANYAM. Mr. Speaker, Virginia Federal employees are still 
being fired, RIF'd, and harassed by this administration.
  Last week, I heard from a constituent who received a termination 
letter from the Department of Health and Human Services just hours 
before it went into effect with no access to their equipment, no 
offboarding information, and no details about their severance. This is 
one of the many, many stories that I get at my office every week.
  Civil servants who dedicate their career to serving this government 
deserve transparency, clarity, and respect. But across agencies, this 
administration continues to blindly and abruptly fire Federal workers. 
What do we have to show for it? A complete and total brain drain.
  We are losing talent and expertise in our Federal Government, all 
while the administration prioritizes tax cuts and handouts to the 
biggest corporations.
  To my constituents impacted by these cuts, I will continue to demand 
answers, and I will continue to fight to hold this administration 
accountable.
