Winter weather is sending federal employees back to remote work status after Trump’s in-person mandate went into effect just one day ago.

The United States Office of Personnel Management is sending government workers home early on Tuesday due to forecasted snowy weather in Washington. After seeing at least 5 inches of snowfall in early January, residents in the Washington metro area are among the estimated 32 million people under a winter weather alert. Around 3 to 6 inches of snow are expected to start falling Tuesday afternoon.
