... that the first-ever mass message to the U.S. government's two million employees was a request for them to resign?

Source: For claim of "first-ever" see CBS News: "'This is a new effort under this administration,' one of the officials said". For claim of "two million" see The New York Times: "The Trump administration on Tuesday offered roughly two million federal workers the option to resign"

@Dan Leonard: Article new and long enough. Referencing is adequate, and no copyvio detected. I am reasonably sure that the entire contents of the email, if available, would be in the public domain; might be worth adding to the article. I cannot find the claim for the "first ever mass message" in the article - it's in the CBS News article, but not in the article body. Once that's added, this would be good to go.

@Juxlos: the "first ever" claim is the second sentence of lead, The memo, the first ever mass message to all roughly two million federal employees, offered a deferred resignation scheme for those unwilling to work under the second presidency of Donald Trump. Since the letter is public domain it’s hosted at Wikisource and included in the article via {{Wikisource}}. Dan Leonard (talk • contribs) 16:12, 3 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Needs an inline citation there then. Added it to save time. Juxlos (talk) 02:23, 4 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

There's no part of the memo that "requests" recipients to resign; it presents an offer, but allows either choice. Antony–22 (^talk⁄_contribs) 04:50, 4 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
