The Trump administration has rescinded the layoff notices sent to hundreds of employees at the Voice of America after staff encountered errors in documents outlining the terms, which could subsequently nullify or delay President Donald Trump’s efforts to dismantle the news outlet.
The email sent on Friday rescinded the layoff notices from last week. The missive was sent by the Voice of America’s human resources office to staff based in Washington. About 90 percent of its union-protected staff live in the nation’s capital, the layoff plan the Trump administration sent to Congress earlier this month stated.
