EPA puts 168 staffers on administrative leave

EPA said it will consider a new structure for the Office of Environmental Justice, which was formed during the Biden administration.

Rep. Paul Tonko (D-NY), speaks during a demonstration following being blocked from entering the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to meet with Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) officials, on February 6, 2025 in Washington, DC.
“Career staff made determinations on which Office of Environmental Justice employees had statutory duties or core mission functions,” EPA spokesperson Molly Vaseliou said in a statement. “As such, 168 staffers were placed on administrative leave as their function did not relate to the agency’s statutory duties or grant work. EPA is in the process of evaluating new structure and organization to ensure we are meeting our mission of protecting human health and the environment for all Americans.”
