The Trump Administration is eyeing federal buildings in Minnesota for sale. 

The General Services Administration released

 and then later rescinded a list of office spaces that could potentially end up on the chopping block.

At least 12 of those spaces are in Minnesota. 

According to Minnesota Star Tribune reporter Briana Bierschbach

, federal workers are confused about what’s ahead.

“They’re getting mixed messages on whether they should be in the office, and where their office might be,” said Bierschbach, who had obtained a PowerPoint presentation from the GSA that indicated it wanted to complete the sale of specific spaces within the next three years.

With that list gone, she said, the future of these buildings and the people that work there remain uncertain.
