C.I.A. to Cut Over 1,000 Staff Positions, Using Attrition
Briefly

The C.I.A. is set to reduce its workforce by more than 1,000 positions through attrition as part of a broader initiative by the Trump administration to shrink the federal government. This plan entails no mass firings but relies primarily on retirements and resignations. The agency is also under scrutiny for terminating officers involved in diversity programs, though this has faced legal challenges. These workforce changes are expected to create paths for emerging leaders and better align the C.I.A. with national security priorities identified by the current administration.
The C.I.A. plans to cut more than 1,000 staff positions through attrition over the next few years.
The agency is also firing officers who had worked on diversity issues, although a judge has temporarily halted that effort.
