Summary
Hour 3 - Good Monday morning! Here's what Nick Reed covers this hour: Springfield City Council will hear and vote on flock cameras this evening at the 6:30 p.m. meeting. The Government Accountability Office says federal agencies spent an estimated $9.5 billion on paid administrative leave in 2025. Roughly $6.7 billion of that was tied to the Trump administration's Deferred Resignation Program, which allowed workers who agreed to leave government to remain on salary while generally no longer working. The $6.7 billion figure is an estimated one-time cost of removing workers from the federal payroll. OPM Director Scott Kupor has said the Deferred Resignation Program is expected to save more than $20 billion every year because those salaries disappear after the employees leave. Brett with MORE Forum joins the program to talk about a recent discussion his group had over flock cameras.
