Revenge of the bureaucrats 11-1

With a country of 2.1 million federal employees and Trump's plan to cut the size of the government workforce, is not going so well. Trump is expected to sign an executive order that freezes federal hiring while his team is finding ways to shrink several agencies which focuses on domestic policy. Many employees do have the power to leak information to the press and media and can use bureaucracy to slow down policy proposals. As Trump tried to cut the size of government he did promise not to touch the two-thirds of federal workforce that work for defense and security agencies. Since there are about 85% of the workers living outside of Washington D.C. it could upset people all over the country.Many of the workers are worried about "being asked too dismantle rules and regulations they've labored over years." As more committees push for a legislative package that would make it easier to fire federal workers, people are debating on whether or not they should quit. But right now it is so difficult to find civil service jobs that not many people have even tried.
