DENVER (KDVR) — As President Donald Trump’s administration intensifies efforts to shrink the size of the federal workforce, masses of federal employees are being laid off across the country, including hundreds in Colorado.
Trump’s Executive Order 14210, Department of Government Efficiency Workforce Optimization Initiative, outlines a reform of the federal workforce. It warns agencies across the country to prepare for large-scale layoffs and prioritizes offices with functions that are not mandated by statute or other law.
