The new website is described as a "federal workers support resource package." Youngkin says the site was designed to help federal employees transition into new roles if they "experience job dislocation."
"We have openings in state government, and they will find a link on our website to go find those opportunities as well," Youngkin.
The site will connect those searching for employment to job sources and regions as well as listings on Indeed and LinkedIn.
"Take advantage of the resources that will help you find your pathway to that career of your dreams," adding: "I actually have extraordinary empathy for the fact that there are many workers in Virginia today, from our federal workforce, who are experiencing real concerns," Youngkin added.

"We have a federal government that is inefficient, and we have an administration that’s taking on that challenge, rooting out waste, fraud and abuse and driving efficiency in our federal government," and "It needs to happen," he said.
However, Youngkin does believe the "federal workforce is not at fault here."
