President Donald Trump is offering incentives to resign to nearly all federal workers in an attempt to reduce the size of the government. The administration expects 5% to 10% of the federal workforce to accept the offer, which contains eight months of pay and benefits. The White House confirmed the plan to the Washington Examiner.

The Trump administration said on Tuesday it is offering financial incentives to 2 million civilian full-time federal workers to quit as part of plans to drastically shrink the size of the U.S. government.

The Trump administration announced an incentive program encouraging federal employees to resign. This 'deferred resignation program' allows employees to stay on payroll without working until September 30.
