All of them? They're not recommending cobra for current employeesThe article says they're still employed.
Ambrosini is among a number of ex-Trump political officials who lost their parental leave when Joe Biden was sworn into office. It’s a byproduct of the field they’re in: Their boss (the president) may have been the one let go, but his departure has meant that they, too, lose their jobs and benefits. Still, they argue that the Biden administration should have honored their leave by keeping them on payroll until the end of it — a request that, emails reviewed by POLITICO show, the Biden transition did not grant.
The Biden White House declined to speak about the issue on record. Instead, an official noted anonymously that political appointees “do not enjoy the promise of federal employment past the end of the administration in which they choose to serve.” The official blamed the fact that the Trump administration dragged its heels on a quick and orderly transition as a reason why some on his team were caught off guard by the benefits ending.
would like to see the source on that. Maybe to the end of the month but not extra. That's also one month not the 3 being requestedNormally, they can receive benefts up to a month after they quit or let go. So yes, kamala regime could have covered them.

The real question is whether you believe federal employees who have quit or been let go should still receive federal benefits. Should tax dollars to to cover those who don't actually work there?
Maybe a proper transition could have alleviated some of the issuesTrump aides made a late request to Team Biden to extend their parental leave. They said no.
"But she was informed a day before her baby was due on Dec. 17 that her leave would be ending Jan. 20, when the inauguration was taking place."
"Late at night on Jan. 5, the father got an email from the HR office saying that they had been wrong and that their benefit would end on Jan. 20."
“I could have left earlier but I didn’t because I was told ‘hey you’ve got paternity leave coming up,’ and if I had known that you’re not going to get to use your paternity leave and you’re actually gonna just work your ass off when you have a new baby and then get fired, I probably would have made a different decision,” he said."
Seems like this problem started back in December and different departments were telling employees different things at different times.
Just these employees or should all former federal employees be covered? How about someone with cancer, heart issues, blown out knee, glaucoma, etc? Where do you draw the line on free stuff?So the new administration wants to continue to protect a freeloader who was 4 months behind on rent before CoVid ever hit our shores, and continues to collect the same "assistance" through the entire pandemic, but will kick Trump appointees to the curb with no benefits. Instead of asking for $1.9 trillion maybe he could have gotten a little bipartisan support asking for $1.900,001.000,000 and provided a continuation of benefits for these families.
