The Trump administration could end up rehiring as many as 20 percent of the agency employees it fires as part of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) initiative, according to Department of Health and Human Services Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
"At DOGE, we talked about this from the beginning ... we're going to do 80 percent cuts, but 20 percent of those are going to have to be reinstalled, because we'll make mistakes," Kennedy told reporters on Thursday at an event in Virginia, Politico reports.
