Federal Judge Extends Deadline for Trump Administration Buyout Offer to Federal Workers
A federal judge extended the deadline for federal workers to accept President Trump's buyout offer to Monday. Further hearings are scheduled to evaluate the legality of the buyback program.
A federal judge has delayed the deadline for President Donald Trump's buyout offer for federal workers, originally set for Thursday. The new ruling now extends the deadline to at least Monday, with a further hearing scheduled for that day.
U.S. District Judge George O'Toole Jr. did not indicate his opinion on the legality of Trump's buyback program.
The extension comes amidst several political developments, including former USAID official Mark Moyar citing 'corruption' subverting the Trump White House, and various other initiatives announced by Trump and his administration.
In addition to the buyout offer delay, federal judges are working on limiting access to sensitive records from the Treasury Department and addressing potential foreign influence in education.
As these political maneuvers continue, the Trump administration faces both support and scrutiny from various factions of political leaders, citizens, and government agencies.
