Ending Paid Work Hours for Federal Employee Union Activities.

This bill aims to stop taxpayers from funding the work hours federal employees use for union activities. Employees serving as union representatives must now conduct all union business outside of their regular, paid duty time. The goal is to save public money and ensure federal workers are compensated strictly for performing their government duties.
Key points
Federal employees can no longer use paid work hours ("official time") to conduct union business, such as negotiations or grievance handling.
All activities related to labor organizations must be performed when the employee is in a non-duty status (off the clock).
The change is intended to reduce costs borne by taxpayers for the federal administration.
