Comparing this report to older reports as to ALJs available: 4/2022 1121 10/2018 1495 10/2016 1355
The last ALJ hire was the October 2017 class. Commissioner Andrew "Bring Back the Backlog" Saul quashed a modest new hiring class in 2019 after the trainers had already been selected. ALJs retire or die every year. The DDS backlog is at a million cases, most of which will be at hearing level in a year. Biden named the ACOSS, but OHO management is still far right politically. Big big mess. OHO wants to scapegoat the ALJs. Maybe the backlog is by design.

The backlog...is growing again.
Something has gone horribly wrong.
