US federal agencies ordered to prepare major job cuts

U.S. federal agencies have been directed to prepare sweeping workforce reduction plans as part of President Donald Trump's Department of Government Efficiency initiative, according to a memo issued Wednesday by top administration officials.

The document, signed by Office of Management and Budget Director Russell Vought, outlines a two-phase approach for implementing "large-scale reductions in force (RIFs)" across the federal government as ordered by Trump.
