President Donald Trump’s order for all federal workers to return to the office could hit a road bump thanks to the policies of his own government.
On his first day in office, Trump ordered all agencies to end remote work and for employees to return to their in-person duty stations. A January 22 memo from the White House’s Office of Personnel Management gave agencies 30 days to comply with this order.
And with the clock ticking, federal agencies — nor the administration itself — have any idea how they will enforce this due to the lack of space available, The Washington Post reports.
In many offices, federal employees will be “sitting on top of each other,” according to Jack Fingert, a senior adviser to the General Services Administration administrator under former president Barack Obama.
