Interesting EPA letter which refers to denigration, sexism and misuse of contract authority in the office of civil rights.

A model to be considered by all present and former CG Women and Men Victimized by Discrimination, Sexual Harassment and Whistleblower Retaliation … enough with plantation mentatality and Gulag conditions. A class petition and class action is warranted … more to come.
*******************************************************************************************************
A group of former and current women EPA employees calling itself R.A.F.A.E.L. (Rejecting All Fear And EPA Lawlessness) today called for EPA Administrator Lisa Jackson to initiate an investigation of Rafael DeLeon, whom she recently named as the Director of the Office of Civil Rights (OCR). Mr. DeLeon has been the subject of numerous complaints by women at the Agency. “EPA has a long history of serious human, civil rights and personnel problems,” said Dr. Marsha Coleman-Adebayo. Perhaps, Administrator Jackson does not know about the Agency’s sordid history. In any event, Mr. DeLeon must be investigated. If the facts of the investigation support the complaints, he must go.”
A significant number of EPA women employees have spoken on the condition of anonymity about the “gulag mentality” inside the EPA’s Office of Civil Rights, referring to the EPA as “a rogue agency.” The women are calling for an independent investigation of Mr. DeLeon as well as former Deputy Chief of Staff Ray Spears and former EPA Director of Civil Rights, Karen Higginbotham. R.A.F.A.E.L. seeks not only Ms. Jackson’s support but is appealing to members of Congress as well. “Congress took the initiative in 2001 when it passed the No FEAR Act,” a senior EPA manager said, “maintaining a hostile work environment, trading sexual favors, sexual, racial and color-based discrimination and retaliation is illegal.”
“We must put a stop to the legacy of retaliation and discrimination at the EPA so that another generation of public servants will not suffer,” said Dr. Marsha Coleman-Adebayo, the leader of the No FEAR Coalition. Dr. Coleman-Adebayo won an historic lawsuit against the agency that lead to the first civil rights and whistleblower law, the Notification of Federal Employees Anti-discrimination and Retaliation Act of 2001, (No Fear). Dr. Coleman-Adebayo is standing with the women at EPA who are complaining about EPA Administrator Jackson’s appointment of Mr. DeLeon to the civil rights position.

interesting website … involving EPA Civil Rights Director

Another employee has left CRD. Young Black man. No doubt leadership will say he left for greener pastures. Anyone keeping a list of people who have been constructively discharged .. or just constructively pissed? What’s this make … 30, 40 people under current leadership?
