4:51Now PlayingCorrection: A graphic highlighting an email received by federal employees showed an incorrect deadline. It should have read 11:59 p.m. Also, we mistakenly said that the Treasury Department was restrained by today’s court ruling. The Department of Education and OPM were restrained by today’s court challenge. The judge did not extend a temporary restraining order to Treasury because such an order exists in a separate case. We regret the errors.
