Saying Goodbye To The Kojo Nnamdi Show
On this last episode, we look back on 23 years of joyous, difficult and always informative conversation.
Federal workers protesting the 2013 government shutdown.
In less than three months, federal workers will have a new boss: Donald Trump. The transition of presidential leadership happens every four or eight years, and for career federal employees, is a standard part of government work. This time around, though, may present a more dramatic change. The president-elect made a number of statements during his campaign criticizing federal workers and promised to institute a hiring freeze on new employees. Kojo explores what the transition of power and new leadership will mean for the region’s federal workforce.
Guests
- Max Stier President and CEO, Partnership for Public Service
