White House offers incentives to federal employees to resign, warns of downsizing

The Trump administration announced a “deferred resignation program” offering incentives for most civilian federal workers to resign, with pay continuing until September 30. The plan aims to streamline the government, with most agencies facing downsizing through layoffs and restructuring. Employees must decide by February 6.

While some agencies, including the military, may expand, critics argue the move pressures workers to leave. The American Federation of Government Employees called it a hostile tactic to push out staff. The White House has not commented.
