More madness in the US government. I hope you know the NSF is the organization that funds science research. From Scientific American as of June 25th:
"The Department of Housing and Urban Development is expected to announce Wednesday that it’s moving into the headquarters of the National Science Foundation in Alexandria, Virginia, according to the union representing NSF employees.
But as of Tuesday evening, staff at the science foundation hadn’t been informed by management about their building's incoming occupants, leaving them feeling blindsided and unsure about where they’re expected to work.
One NSF employee said that they had “literally zero idea” the move was coming until reports began circulating among staffers Tuesday evening. That person was granted anonymity because they fear retaliation.
[...]
It’s unclear what happens to the staff at NSF, where more than 1,833 employees work in the building, according to the employee union.
[...]
The union said in a press release Tuesday that it was told that plans for NSF headquarters include a dedicated executive suite for the HUD secretary on the 19th floor, the construction of an executive dining room, reserved parking spaces for the secretary’s cars, exclusive use of an elevator for the secretary and a space dedicated to hosting the secretary’s executive assistants on the 18th floor."
