Some 75,000 federal employees accepted the Trump administration’s “Fork in the Road” deferred resignation offer, a White House official confirmed to the Washington Examiner. The figure represents less than 4% of the more than 2 million federal workers currently employed and is less than the 5% to 10% estimate officials were hoping to hit through

The offer’s deadline closed Wednesday after a federal judge ruled to end a temporary pause to the program ordered last week.

With a judge’s assent, the Trump administration moved to take next steps in the program and close it to new entrants.
