The Trump administration has been quietly hiring political appointees under a new employment category. Agencies have made at least 25 Schedule G appointments, with the earliest recruit dating back to last August.

Federal News Network’s Drew Friedman gets more from the author of new analysis on Schedule G, at the Partnership for Public Service, Chris Piper.
