Government shutdown leaves federal workers ‘on edge’ as Trump eyes more job cuts

A federal government shutdown has furloughed an estimated 750,000 employees, causing financial hardship and emotional distress. Many face the threat of further cuts and potential permanent termination. Agencies like the USPTO and EPA are already implementing layoffs. Experts warn the shutdown deepens strain on food banks and impacts public services, as workers' livelihoods are used as a political pawn. Labor unions are suing over the firing threats, calling them unlawful and immoral.
