SCOTUS gives the Trump Administration the green light to cut the federal workforce

The Supreme Court has given the Trump Administration the “all clear” for its plan to cut the federal workforce, including at the USDA.

The issue had been caught up in the courts for a while now. A lower court had previously ruled President Trump’s “reduction in force” executive order was illegal, but the high court disagreed.

Reports show as many as 16,000 USDA employees accepted the buyout program offered earlier this year.
