  North Carolina military bases, Forest Service outposts, VA hospitals, Social Security offices and RTP's massive EPA lab are all home to thousands of federal workers who could soon be fired. Gov. Josh Stein wants them to move to state government.

The article from MSN discusses how the North Carolina government is considering leveraging a policy initially proposed by former President Donald Trump and later supported by Elon Musk, known as "Schedule F." This policy aims to reclassify tens of thousands of federal workers from career civil servants to at-will employees, making it easier for political appointees to fire them. The idea behind this move is to reduce the influence of what some conservatives refer to as the "deep state" by allowing for more direct control over the bureaucracy. Critics argue that this could politicize the federal workforce, potentially undermining the expertise and independence of government agencies. The article highlights the ongoing debate about the implications of such a policy, with supporters believing it would streamline government operations and critics warning of potential negative impacts on government efficiency and employee morale.
