Trump is laying off workers due to government shutdown
US President Donald Trump has begun laying off thousands of federal workers due to the government shutdown. This was reported by Zamin.uz.

He described this decision as a problem caused by the Democrats. The layoff process started in the Departments of Treasury, Health, Education, Commerce, and Homeland Security.

So far, more than approximately 4,200 workers have been warned and their jobs are at risk. The Democrats, however, are resisting Trump's pressure and attributing the problem to political reasons.

Labor unions have filed lawsuits demanding a halt to the layoffs. Meanwhile, some employees are not coming to their workplaces, while others are forced to work without pay.

There are warnings that this situation may also affect active military personnel in the US. This problem, caused by the government shutdown, is negatively impacting various sectors of state activity and needs to be resolved soon.
