💨 Abstract
The U.S. Department of Education is spending over $7 million monthly to pay employees sent on administrative leave following layoffs and reinstatements due to a court battle over Trump-era cuts. Around 1,300 employees were laid off and hundreds more took buyouts, leading to ongoing legal disputes and reinstatements with employees receiving pay without working, leading to frustration and uncertainty among affected staff.
