75,000 federal employees have now accepted President Donald Trump’s buyout offer to leave their jobs or be forced to return to work in person. The U.S. Office of Personnel Management offered the deferred resignation program to more than 2 million federal civilian employees in January. Employees who accepted the “fork in the road” offer will retain all pay and benefits and be exempt from in-person work until September 30 when their employment ends. The move is part of a broader attempt by the Trump administration to downsize the federal government. “We have too many people,” Trump told reporters Tuesday in a press briefing.
