We are dedicated DOI employees who swore an oath to the constitution to protect the Nation’s natural resources and cultural heritage. Officially *unofficial* account. Do not approach the wildlife. This bison bites back. #AltGov 🦬

A screenshot from the "official" Department of the Interior Bluesky account that reads, "While our national parks face closures and staff furloughs during the shutdown, let's talk about the National Parks Conservation Association @protectparks.bsky.social, the group that claims to be "the voice of America's national parks." A weird and embarrassing thread follows.

A screenshot of text from the following document: https://storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.cand.444883/gov.uscourts.cand.444883.127.3.pdf The text says: "The tremendous uncertainty associated with this confusion and these administrative burdens would preclude supervisors from appropriately managing their workforce. Work schedules and assignments would effectively be tied to hearing and briefing schedules set by the courts. It would be extremely difficult to assign new work to reinstated individuals in light of the uncertainty over their future status. 14. Finally, offering reinstatement to terminated probationary or trial period appointees will interfere with the effective functioning of the Department. On and after February 14, 2025, the Department has made meaningful changes to address the challenged terminations, including reassigning the duties performed by the terminated individuals, many of whom would have no duties to perform if they accepted reinstatement. Pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1746, I declare under penalty of perjury that the foregoing is true and correct. Dated: March 14, 2025"
