[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Some of the cuts are from closing the regional centers though. 10,000 are voluntary retirements and separations, the other 10,000 will be layoffs but somewhat spread across the country. [/quote] Around 9,000 of the HHS job losses will come from Maryland alone if they are equally distributed across the country. That is almost 1/300 workers in the state losing their job from these cuts. The proportionate share is close to 1% of total employment for MOCO. It will be disastrous. People need to be protesting this weekend. This is apocalyptic for the county. [/quote]
