Primes

• Constraint Release
  • In organizations, lifting a hiring or expense freeze releases the hiring the freeze had suppressed — though the one measured case runs to the prior baseline rather than past it: after the June 1977 U.S. federal hiring freeze was lifted, hiring rose fast enough that by November permanent full-time employment stood only 2,965 positions below where it had been when the freeze began.

Does it back the claim? Recorded for the single citation of this work.

Was it audited? Yes. A second, independent pass read the citation against the article text and recorded a verdict.

Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another.
