The union for VA workers rallied on Leavenworth in opposition to the plan to cut more than 80,000 positions at the agency.
VA Secretary Doug Collins said in a video message that upcoming personnel cuts would amount to about a 15% reduction in VA’s workforce.
The scope of the layoffs locally are still unknown, but the VA has announced more than 1,200 workers would be terminated over the past two weeks.
Around 200 people rallied outside the Milwaukee Zablocki VA Medical Center on Friday to oppose proposed cuts at the Department of Veterans Affairs.
