President Trump’s government worker buyout has those worried about USDA workers

President Trump’s proposed government worker buyout has some worried about potential losses at USDA. That proposal is now tied up in court, and Senator Chuck Grassley says his office has taken a lot of calls, and he says it is ultimately up to the courts.

“We’re getting a lot of calls, maybe last week 400-500 on this whole process. I don’t think that this Boston judge is the final word. I think the Administration is going to appeal a lot of these decisions, and they should appeal them. If they appeal them and win, then we know that the process can go on.”

The Trump Administration says it will appeal that judge’s decision. At last check, more than 65,000 federal employees had opted into the buyout.
