Original: US federal workforce drops to lowest level in 60 years after Trump purged hundreds of thousands of employees
The US federal workforce has fallen to its lowest level in six decades after the Trump administration dismissed hundreds of thousands of federal employees. The figure reflects mass layoffs, deferred resignation programs and hiring freezes across government agencies. Observers are debating whether the shrinking bureaucracy signals a lasting restructuring of the federal government or risks undercutting public services.
