An American flag was hung upside down on El Capitan at Yosemite National Park on Saturday following the firing of about 1,000 National Park Service employees.

The flag was reportedly hung over the side of El Capitan as a sign of protest by Yosemite employees concerned about the recent downsizing carried out as part of the Trump administration’s cost-cutting initiatives.

In a noticeable effort to grab attention, protesters put up an upside-down American flag on El Capitan at a time when visitors were gathered in droves.

Yosemite National Park faces chaos after an upside-down American flag was displayed at El Capitan, highlighting a staffing crisis and growing concerns over a federal hiring freeze.
