Thousands of National Park Service and U.S. Forest Service employees are being laid off as part of a federal workforce downsizing plan by President Trump and Elon Musk.

The report has raised concerns about national park access and maintenance heading into the summer travel season.

"You didn't hate me when I swam in my full uniform, hat and all, to save your child being dragged in a kayak by a rip current."

Fired U.S. National Forest and National Parks employees are speaking out about the mass layoffs by the Trump administration.

The Trump administration is restoring jobs for dozens of fired National Park Service employees and hiring nearly 3,000 additional seasonal workers, following an uproar over an aggressive plan to downsize the agency.

Behind the scenes, cabinet secretaries compared notes as they tried to figure out how to respond to a directive from President Trump’s most powerful adviser without angering the president.

The U.S. Forest Service is firing around 3,400 recent hires while the National Park Service is terminating about 1,000 under President Donald Trump's push to cut federal spending, people familiar with the plans said on Friday.
