The Trump administration has outlined plans to significantly reduce the federal workforce, projecting a 300,000 employee cut by the end of the year. This would be the largest single-year decline in civilian federal employment since the end of World War II, according to Scott Kupor, director of the Office of Personnel Management. Kupor stated that the majority of these reductions will come from attrition rather than direct layoffs, highlighting a strategy focused on voluntary departures and retirements.
