What to know about the federal workforce under Trump
Thursday, 13 February 2025 () Since President Donald Trump began his second term last month, he has focused on bringing about a dramatic reduction in the federal workforce at a breakneck pace. But it’s not easy to fire the vast majority of federal workers in the government, because they have considerable job security with a long legal history. Federal employees who are not political appointees have strong protections designed to prevent political whims from clearing out the workforce. The protections have grown over time, under leadership of both major political parties. Federal workers also are entitled to due process, which means they can challenge disciplinary actions through a formal process.
