President Donald Trump’s administration has offered millions of federal workers the chance to take a “deferred resignation.” A January 28 email from the Office of Personnel Management stated that those who take the buyout will be paid through the end of September. Workers have until February 6 to accept the offer.

“If you resign under this program, you will retain all pay and benefits regardless of your daily workload and will be exempted from all applicable in-person work requirements until September 30, 2025 (or earlier if you choose to accelerate your resignation for any reason),” the email explained.
