<p class="EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao MvWXB TjIXL aGjvy ebVHC ">In the weeks since President Donald Trump has assumed office, more than 200,000 federal workers at more than a dozen agencies have had their roles eliminated.</p>
<p class="EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy ">The mass culling stems in large part from efforts by Elon Musk and the newly formed Department of Government Efficiency, which has sought to <a class="zZygg UbGlr iFzkS qdXbA WCDhQ DbOXS tqUtK GpWVU iJYzE " data-testid="prism-linkbase" href="https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/elon-musks-government-dismantling-fight-stop/story?id=118576033" target="_blank">dismantle</a> large swaths of the federal government.</p>
<p class="EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy ">Many of those fired have been classified as probationary employees, a status unrelated to job performance. While probationary employees can be recent hires &#8212; typically having served in their roles for under one or two years &#8212; the status can also apply to long-serving government employees who&#8217;ve changed roles or agencies.</p>
<p class="EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy ">In addition to those who&#8217;ve been fired, 75,000 federal workers have accepted <a class="zZygg UbGlr iFzkS qdXbA WCDhQ DbOXS tqUtK GpWVU iJYzE " data-testid="prism-linkbase" href="https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/trump-administration-offers-federal-workers-payouts-resignations-move/story?id=118200352" target="_blank">buyouts.</a></p>
<p class="EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy ">Here are the agencies where workers are facing termination:</p>
<h3 class="vPZug ZqdKL xcLAU bunQU uhXXI PjNjV lNbol LBPRq ">Department of Education</h3>
<p class="EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy ">Dozens of &#8220;probationary employees&#8221; were let go from the Department of Education last Wednesday, according to two sources familiar with the firings.</p>
<p class="EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy ">Dismantling the Department of Education was one of Trump&#8217;s key campaign promises. He has slammed the department as a &#8220;con job&#8221; that should be &#8220;closed immediately,&#8221; and has directed Musk to investigate the agency.</p>
<p class="EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy ">The Department of Education is the smallest cabinet-level agency with 4,400 employees. Another 1,400 employees work in the agency&#8217;s office of Federal Student Aid.</p>
<h3 class="vPZug ZqdKL xcLAU bunQU uhXXI PjNjV lNbol LBPRq ">Department of Homeland Security</h3>
<p class="EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy ">More than 400 employees at the Department of Homeland Security have had their positions eliminated, officials said. About half of the cuts were in the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), which saw over 200 dismissed.</p>
<p class="EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy ">The firings at FEMA came after Musk slammed federal spending on what he <a class="zZygg UbGlr iFzkS qdXbA WCDhQ DbOXS tqUtK GpWVU iJYzE " data-testid="prism-linkbase" href="https://apnews.com/article/fema-migrants-nyc-funding-luxury-hotels-doge-c7d2c0b029bc653293a478b4bf5d59b1" target="_blank">misleadingly</a> called &#8220;luxury hotels&#8221; for undocumented immigrants.</p>
<p class="EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy ">In addition to the cuts at FEMA, the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) lost 130 staffers, and the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services and DHS Science and Technology had smaller degrees of cuts.</p>

<h3 class="vPZug ZqdKL xcLAU bunQU uhXXI PjNjV lNbol LBPRq ">Department of Energy</h3>
<p class="EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy ">Roughly 2,000 people have been fired from the Department of Energy, including at the National Nuclear Security Administration.</p>
<p class="EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy ">One of the terminated employees, <a class="zZygg UbGlr iFzkS qdXbA WCDhQ DbOXS tqUtK GpWVU iJYzE " data-testid="prism-linkbase" href="https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/fired-federal-workers-decry-arbitrary-haphazard-terminations/story?id=118837927" target="_blank">Krzan Matta</a>, told ABC News the firings were conducted in a &#8220;haphazard&#8221; and &#8220;arbitrary&#8221; manner.</p>
<p class="EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy ">&#8220;There&#8217;s no consideration for the mission. There&#8217;s no consideration for whether or not this position is critical,&#8221; he said.</p>
<h3 class="vPZug ZqdKL xcLAU bunQU uhXXI PjNjV lNbol LBPRq ">United States Agency for International Development</h3>
<p class="EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy ">As part of Trump and Musk&#8217;s stated objective of shuttering the United States Agency for International Development (USAID), more than 10,000 staffers have been placed on leave, multiple sources told ABC News.</p>
<p class="EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy ">Roughly 600 USAID workers remain in their roles.</p>
<h3 class="vPZug ZqdKL xcLAU bunQU uhXXI PjNjV lNbol LBPRq ">Consumer Financial Protection Bureau</h3>
<p class="EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy ">The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) has also been targeted by Trump and Musk, who have said they plan to gut the 1,700-employee consumer watchdog agency.</p>
<p class="EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy ">On Friday, government lawyers representing the agency&#8217;s acting director <a class="zZygg UbGlr iFzkS qdXbA WCDhQ DbOXS tqUtK GpWVU iJYzE " data-testid="prism-linkbase" href="https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/mass-layoffs-expected-judge-weigh-blocking-dismantling-consumer/story?id=118815183" target="_blank">reached an agreement</a> to temporarily hold off on firing CFPB workers while a lawsuit challenging the dismantling of the agency makes its way through court.</p>
<h3 class="vPZug ZqdKL xcLAU bunQU uhXXI PjNjV lNbol LBPRq ">Department of Veterans Affairs</h3>
<p class="EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy ">More than 1,000 Department of Veterans Affairs employees have been dismissed from their roles, the agency said Thursday.</p>
<p class="EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy ">In a statement, the department said the cuts were part of the &#8220;government-wide Trump Administration effort to make agencies more efficient, effective and responsive to the American People.&#8221;</p>

<p class="EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy ">Arata developed conservation plans for farmers in Georgia and helped them get federal funding.</p>
