The Cuyahoga Valley National Park's seasonal positions have been reinstated after a nearly month-long hiring freeze that began due to the Trump administration's continued efforts to reduce federal jobs.

Earlier this month, layoffs began at Cuyahoga Valley National Park, and four employees lost their jobs. The park said Wednesday that they are not aware of any staff being re-hired.
