Workplace Fairness Statement: We express our deep concern regarding the recent firings of EEOC Commissioners Jocelyn Samuels and Charlotte Burrows, along with NLRB Member Gwynne Wilcox and General Counsel Jennifer Abruzzo. These dismissals raise significant alarms surrounding the protection of workers, and undermine some of the nation’s most critical agencies for promoting equity, fighting discrimination and ensuring fair labor practices in our country.
