Vice President JD Vance on Oct. 12 said there will be deeper cuts to the federal workforce the longer the government shutdown goes on, adding to the uncertainty facing hundreds of thousands who are already furloughed without pay amid a stalemate in Congress.
Vance told Fox News on Sunday morning that as the federal shutdown entered its 12th day, some of the new cuts will be “painful,” as the administration confirmed that around 4,100 workers received layoff notices on Oct. 10.
