President Donald Trump’s administration offered financial incentives to reduce the number of employees, providing severance pay equivalent to eight months’ salary. The offer applies to most government employees, except military personnel, with the aim of restructuring the government. The American Federation of Government Employees and unions are challenging the legality of this directive, claiming it is arbitrary and violates the prescribed process.
