The SSA has put its employees on notice that GOP spending cuts could well lead to furloughs.
“It is important to note that the Commissioner has not decided to effectuate a furlough,” reads a letter from the office of labor-management relations. “However, given the potential of reduced Congressional appropriations for the remainder of the fiscal year, the Agency is issuing this notice at this time in the event that a furlough may become necessary.”
