Protecting Civil Service: Restoring Federal Employment Stability

This act aims to nullify a previous executive order that altered federal employment rules. It ensures that federal employees who were moved to less stable positions will return to their previous, protected roles. This provides greater job security and protects against politically motivated dismissals.
Key points
Nullifies the executive order that created a new category of positions (Schedule F) in the civil service, meaning these positions cease to exist.
Converts federal employees who were moved to Schedule F back to their previous, protected positions.
Prohibits the use of federal funds to implement or administer the nullified executive order.
Individuals involuntarily removed from civil service due to the changes introduced by the nullified order may be reinstated with backpay.
