FSA Goes Back to Work?
Only in part. Here's the Politico piece on Perdue's telling 2,500 employees to return on Jan 17, 18, and 22.
And here's the USDA press release.
And here's the list of offices which will open. (My impression is that a smaller share of offices in the Northeast are being reopened than in the rest of the country. They may have given preference to locations with heavy MFP activity?)
I wonder how they determined the employees to call back? All CED's of offices they're reopening? Might not be the best employees to have.
I wonder what happens after Monday?
Will be interesting to see how this works out.
And here's a NASCOE explainer from yesterday. (Thumbs up to NASCOE for the post.)
