Trump’s Buyout Email To Federal Workers: ‘Fork In The Road’ In a Tuesday evening email titled “Fork In The Road,” President Donald Trump offered buyouts to hundreds of thousands of federal workers.
The email, which HuffPost obtained from a federal employee and which has also circulated online, gives public servants until Feb. 6 to participate in the resignation program, with instructions to “type the word 'resign' into the body of this reply email” and “Hit 'send.'”
Anyone who accepts the buyout will receive a paycheck through the end of September.
“If you choose not to continue in your current role in the federal workforce, we thank you for your service to your country and you will be provided with a dignified, fair departure from the federal government utilizing a deferred resignation program,” the email from the Office of Personnel Management reads.
“Whichever path you choose, we thank you for your service to The United States of America.”
