白宫在持续的政府停摆中启动大规模联邦员工裁员

摘要

随着政府停摆进入第十天,白宫已开始大规模裁减联邦雇员,旨在向民主党议员施压。

随着政府停摆进入第十天,白宫已开始实施大规模联邦员工裁员。管理与预算办公室主任拉斯·沃特在社交媒体上宣布,“裁员已开始”,指的是旨在缩减联邦劳动力的裁员行动。预算办公室发言人形容此次裁员为“重大”,但未提供具体数字。

教育部是受影响的机构之一,一位发言人确认了新的裁员,但未透露更多细节。自唐纳德·特朗普总统上任以来,该部门的员工人数已从约4100人减少至约2500人。联邦卫生工作人员也在被解雇,尽管卫生与公共服务部尚未具体说明裁员的范围或重点。

在10月1日停摆开始之前,白宫已指示所有联邦机构提交裁员计划以供审查。这些计划针对的是停摆期间资金将中断、缺乏替代资金来源或“不符合总统优先事项”的项目。这一做法不同于典型的停摆程序,后者通常是将联邦员工休假,待资金恢复后再重新上岗。

民主党议员质疑这些裁员的合法性,认为可能违反联邦法律。特朗普总统本周早些时候表示,如果停摆持续,裁员数量可能会很大,并称:“如果这种情况继续下去,裁员将非常多,很多职位将永远不会恢复。”

随着停摆持续,众议院和参议院仍陷入僵局,民主党和共和党领导人之间没有进行积极谈判。参议院多数党领袖约翰·图恩敦促中间派民主党人打破阵线,称:“是时候让他们有骨气了。”

这一局势凸显了双方为解决资金僵局而不断升级的紧张关系和战略博弈。
