Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro announced plans to recruit federal workers who may be losing or leaving their jobs due to President Trump’s efforts to reduce the federal workforce. Shapiro is joining other governors in holding job fairs and fast-tracking hiring for federal employees. By considering federal job experience, Shapiro hopes to fill the state’s nearly 6,000 open positions with qualified workers.
Shapiro highlighted the potential for federal workers with experience in healthcare, engineering, accounting, and emergency response to fill vacancies in various state agencies. He emphasized the importance of utilizing the skills and expertise of federal workers to enhance Pennsylvania’s workforce.
Critics of Trump’s administration, including Shapiro, argue that the reductions in the federal workforce have made the country less safe, healthy, and protected. With additional plans to cut the workforces of agencies like the IRS and Social Security Administration, federal employees are facing uncertainty about their job security.
Shapiro’s initiative to recruit federal workers aims to provide opportunities for those affected by Trump’s downsizing of the federal government. By offering job opportunities in Pennsylvania, Shapiro hopes to support these workers in transitioning to new roles and continuing their careers in public service.
