And the rate looks certain to【C1】______In 2000, about 94,000 people age 60 and older worked for the government. Last year, the number was 262,000.
The wave of retirement is helping to bring down the size of the federal【C2】______and—where funding is available—could afford agencies the chance to hire younger workers with【C3】______skills. The retirement of clerks could clear the way for experts in cyber security and information technology.
