REPORT: Trump Wants to Fire Federal Employees Who Refuse to Return to Working in Offices


During COVID, government employees across the country were able to begin working from home and now, years later, they donโ€™t want to give that up.

Trump wants to put an end to this. He expects people to actually show up to their offices to do their jobs. Can you imagine that?

Trump is serious about this too, and wants to fire employees who wonโ€™t return to working in-person. He absolutely should. if these people donโ€™t need to show up for work, what are taxpayers paying them for?

The Washington Times reports:

Trump wants to fire federal workers who donโ€™t return to office, calls telework deal โ€˜ridiculousโ€™

President-elect Donald Trump on Monday vowed to fire federal employees who donโ€™t come back into the office, threatening to file a lawsuit challenging a Biden administration labor contract that cemented remote work benefits for thousands of government workers.

โ€œIf people donโ€™t come back to work, come back into the office, theyโ€™re going to be dismissed,โ€ Mr. Trump said at a press conference at his Mar-a-Lago residence in Palm Beach, Florida.

โ€œAnd somebody in the Biden administration even gave a five-year waiver of that so that for five years, people donโ€™t have to come back into the office,โ€ he said. โ€œItโ€™s ridiculous. So itโ€™sโ€™ like a gift to the union.โ€

Mr. Trump was referring to a remote work provision included in a contract negotiation between the Social Security Administration and 42,000 workers represented by the American Federation of Government Employees. That contract locked in workersโ€™ freedom to be in the office for as little as two days a week, depending on the job.

One of the issues here is that we have government office buildings all over the place that are essentially empty, yet taxpayers are expected to heat and maintain them. Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy of the DOGE are already looking at this.

Many of these folks are going to find themselves out of a job and they will have no one to blame but themselves.
