Federal agencies are scrambling to comply with President Donald Trump 's return-to-office mandate.

FEMA : Employees would have to “share workstations on a rotating basis,” agency announced.

On the first day of his new presidential term, Trump directed all agency and department heads to end remote work arrangements and bring all employees back to in-person work.

Some federal workers have resorted to using a parking lot at the nearby Anacostia Metro station and, then, taking a DHS shuttle to the headquarters building.

ACLU: Having a work-provided shuttle that is not accessible would appear to be a separate violation of federal disability rights laws.

Some of these challenges may be offset by the Trump administration’s push to drastically reduce the federal workforce.
