More than 200,000 federal employees were dismissed earlier this year and additional cuts have been implemented during the shutdown. Statements include "We're closing up programs ... that we wanted to close up or that we never wanted to happen," and "We're not going to let them come back." Claims also assert that Democrats are "getting killed" during the shutdown. The most recent layoffs affected agencies including the EPA, Department of Health and Human Services, and the Education Department. The White House deferred comment to the Office of Management and Budget, which did not respond by publication time.
