The records span 18 agencies and mark the most comprehensive accounting to date of sweeping firings in recent months .

Most of the reinstated employees were placed on paid administrative leave, according to declarations from officials at the agencies.

The administration is facing an array of legal challenges on a wide range of issues, including the ongoing effort led by Trump adviser Elon Musk to slash the federal workforce.
