Plan to move 10,000 federal jobs to curb unemployment
The White House plans to divert about 10,000 federal jobs from Washington to one or more large American cities to ease unemployment. Most workers would be clerical, earning 2000 to 3000 dollars, with transfers possibly lasting a year or year and a half. Commerce surveys seek the best city to host the census work and House officials note the plan would test moving federal operations outside Washington.
