Millions of Americans work for the federal government.

The federal government is not allowed to hire employees.

Explanation

The federal government employs millions of people across agencies, the military, and other federal services. That makes “Millions of Americans work for the federal government” the most accurate statement. Federal employment is substantial, but it is not a majority of all Americans, and the government is allowed to hire employees.
