GSA has been planning to sell office space since last year: https://federalnewsnetwork.com/facilities-construction/2024/.... It’s office space in DC is significantly underutilized.
The current administration has added far more properties to the list, including major headquarters buildings.
It doesn't make sense to sell the HQs and make everyone RTO at the same time.

And yet we have stories like "Federal workers ordered to return to offices without desks, Wi-Fi and lights":

So at the same time we have the administration saying "RTO" and the admin's playbook people saying (in the past?) "we have RTO, why do we need space?".
