Longtime Army veteran Luke Graziani, who was abruptly terminated in February from the Bronx VA under Trump administration’s federal staffing cuts, has now been reinstated to his former job. He has been back for over a week in his previous role handling internal and external communications for the Kingsbridge Heights facility.
Although Graziani, who lives in Queens, is now back doing the job he loves — and even got a pay raise, having now completed his probationary year — he still feels a lingering sense of uncertainty, he said in an April 9 phone call with the Bronx Times.
