OMB announced on Federal news and then American Thinker 30 day lay off does not apply to emergency shutdowns. They think after 30 days the emergency shutdown furlough switches to an administrative furlough accompanied by a detailed plan to lay off. Then 30 days later lay offs. Legally grey area. So there could be a judge who would halt it and then an appeal and then if necessary the supreme court. Could take 6 months to year. Faster to just do the administrative lay off after 30 days shutdown and then the administrative leave. Not sure the Gov has too stay shutdown after the administrative leave starts.  That would depend on the reasons set forth in the plan for the RIF, I would guess.    Here's a link: https://voat.co/v/GreatAwakening/2977156
