A former Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) employee who issued a directive for FEMA workers not to inspect homes with Trump signs in the aftermath of Hurricane Milton in Florida violated the Hatch Act, according to a Feb. 11 complaint filed by the U.S. Office of Special Counsel (OSC).
Marn'i Washington, who was terminated by FEMA’s then-director, has “violated the Hatch Act by engaging in political activity while on duty and using her official authority or influence to interfere with or affect the results of an election” by telling crew members not to visit properties with campaign signs supporting Donald Trump for President, the office said in a statement.
