Begging The Obvious

How Many Federal Worker Resignations Would Be a Lot?

Seventy-five thousand have submitted resignations as part of Elon Musk’s “fork in the road” offer. 

But 150,000 voluntarily leave every year anyway.

Feel free to parse the data here



EDIT To Add:


A federal judge in Massachusetts allowed the Trump administration's bid to offer "deferred resignations" to federal workers who voluntarily leave government service to continue and lifted a previous court order pausing the program's deadline.

Shortly after the ruling, Office of Personnel Management spokesperson McLaurine Pinover said in a statement that the office was "pleased" with the court's decision and that the deferred resignation program was closed as of 7 p.m. Wednesday. Roughly 75,000 federal workers have accepted the offer to leave their government positions, according to White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt. The White House had expected as many as 200,000 workers to accept the offer.
