Trump Cut THIS Many Gov’t Jobs

President Trump has made it a priority to reduce the size of the federal government. A new report suggests he is succeeding.

According to CNSNews:

(CNSNews.com) – The number of people employed by the federal government declined by 1,000 in September, according to data released today by the Bureau of Labor Statistics.

Since President Donald Trump took office, federal employment has declined by 16,000.

In December 2016, the month before Trump’s inauguration, there were 2,810,000 people employed by the federal government, according to the BLS data. By August 2018, that had declined by 15,000 to 2,795,000. In September, it declined another 1,000 to 2,794,000.

At the same time, overall government employment (including those employed by state and local governments) increased 13,000 in September and has climbed by 100,000 since December 2016.

This is major news and hopefully paying down the deficit follows.
