Incentives...
A State Department official confirms to ABC News that the department is offering "voluntary buyouts and early retirement incentives" as part of its effort to reduce its own ranks.
The Trump administration wants to get rid of 641 employees -- in addition to "normal attrition" -- by the end of 2018, in particular "to reduce unnecessary supervisory levels and organizational layering," the official said.
"The Department's goal is to meet its workforce reduction targets through the use of voluntary measures.
The agency has also frozen all new hiring and any promotions in an effort to limit the number of employees.
The news comes after a scathing letter from the Foreign Service union's president, questioning why the administration was depleting the diplomatic corps' ranks.
We do not need to start additional war in the middle east. We should leave Iraq-Syria and Libya alone. The advise given to start the wars in Iraq, Syria, and Libya were wrong all the way. Millions have died, millions are refugees, and millions are injured. Life in most areas have been destroyed.
