Trump's buyout offer for federal workers is under legal scrutiny

from The State of California

President Trump rescinded his freeze on federal grants and a wide range of government spending after it was blocked by a federal judge. But the president is offering millions of federal workers an early retirement buyout, which he says is in the name of efficiency. A House Oversight panel has been formed to keep an eye on the newly-formed Department of Government Efficiency, and there is only one Californian on that subcommittee. For more, KCBS Radio news anchors Patti Reising and Bret Burkhart and KCBS political reporter Doug Sovern spoke with that California Congressman, Representative Robert Garcia (D-CA) from Long Beach.
