Summary

Vivek Ramaswamy, alongside Elon Musk, plans to push federal workers back to the office full-time, aiming to reduce telework and downsize bureaucracy.

Ramaswamy claims requiring in-office attendance could lead to a 25% reduction in federal staff.

Critics, including federal worker unions, argue many jobs, such as healthcare and law enforcement, don’t qualify for telework and warn the move may hurt recruitment and retention.

Meanwhile, costly underused federal office space has drawn attention, with many agencies utilizing only a fraction of their space.

    Nope let’s make people quit and replace them instead!
