The Trump administration has told around two million federal workers they can resign via email in exchange for a payout.

Senator Tim Kaine, Democrat of Virginia, quickly condemned the Trump administration’s offer to roughly 2 million federal employees to resign in exchange for pay, saying in a Senate floor speech that the deal was a trick, that the president didn’t have the authority to make the offer and employees who resign may not be paid.

President Donald Trump is offering incentives to resign to nearly all federal workers in an attempt to reduce the size of the government. The administration expects 5% to 10% of the federal workforce to accept the offer, which contains eight months of pay and benefits. The White House confirmed the plan to the Washington Examiner.
