'Firing allowed, training is not: Trump administration shares shutdown plans'

 

  • Just 11 of the 24 largest agencies have public shutdown plans
  • Trump administration threatened mass firings of federal workers in shutdown
  • Republicans and Democrats at impasse over funding bill
President Donald Trump's administration started detailing its plans on Monday for which services it will pause if the federal government shuts down this week, with the U.S. health department slated to furlough 41% of its workforce.
The impending shutdown will be different from past government closures because the administration has threatened mass firings of federal staff, adding that it could use the lapse in funding to downsize the federal government.
