President Donald Trump‘s voluntary resignation offer to federal workers leaves them with few legal options if they decide to take the deal and later try to sue.
Employees have until 11:59 p.m. today to decide whether to take an offer to go on administrative leave and continue collecting a paycheck through Sept. 30. In exchange, they must waive their right to challenge the arrangement in court, according to a Feb. 4 statement from OPM, forcing them to trust the Trump administration will honor the deal.
“Civil servants need to think very carefully about the risks posed by an offer like this given the legal questions surrounding it and whether they truly think the offer is going to be upheld,” said Nick Bednar, an administrative law professor at University of Minnesota.
