More than 10,000 federal workers have been dismissed as a result of the president’s executive order. UC Law Professor Anne Lofaso and U.S. Rep. Greg Landsman spoke with Cincinnati Edition about presidential executive orders.

Landsman says the layoffs could affect public health, consumer protection and other areas of service. His comments were part of a recorded interview that aired the first half of a 47-minute segment.

UC Law Professor Anne Lofaso continued the conversation with Cincinnati Edition discussing the legality of executive orders issued by President Trump.  (Her segment begins at 25:18).
