DNC union rips leadership for laying off employees without severance

The union that represents staffers at the Democratic National Committee is calling out its leadership in the wake of the party’s defeat in the 2024 general election.

The statement said the DNC is “facing the fallout of callous and short-sighted mismanagement by senior leadership.” The union said that beginning last Wednesday, permanent employees were notified of their termination, which was effective on Friday and with no severance pay.
