This week’s Workforce Watch newsletter breaks down the biggest federal workforce news and what it means for Americans.

We spotlight why mothers are leaving the workforce in record numbers as return-to-office mandates collide with the childcare crisis, and explain how Trump’s proposed federal pay freeze and the largest government workforce cuts since World War II could impact over two million employees. Subscribe to stay ahead on federal jobs, worker rights, and the future of America’s workforce.
