NASA is slashing nearly more than 20 percent of its workforce as part of President Trump’s efforts to downsize the federal government since returning to the White House. Nearly 4,000 workers have requested to depart the space agency through two rounds of the deferred resignation program. The deadline for the program was Friday at midnight. A budget proposal from the White House, released in May, would reduce NASA’s overall budget by 24 percent. The topline number would drop from $24 billion to $18 billion. Over 360 NASA employees sent a letter to their employer earlier this month, urging them not to make deep cuts, warning it will have “dire” consequences.
