Homeland Security Warns Employees of Hatch Act

“The Department of Homeland Security sent an agency-wide email to its employees Thursday morning reminding them not to participate in partisan politics, citing ‘heightened scrutiny,'” CNN reports.

“While directives like this are standard in election years, the warning comes days after acting Homeland Security Secretary Chad Wolf participated in a swearing in ceremony with President Trump for naturalized Americans as part of the Republican National Convention, raising ethics concerns.”
