Bill > HR1559

This bill, known as the "Postal Employee Appeal Rights Amendment Act of 2025", aims to modify existing law regarding appeal rights for certain United States Postal Service (USPS) employees. Specifically, the bill extends the right to appeal to the Merit Systems Protection Board (MSPB), an independent federal agency that handles employment disputes, to a specific subset of USPS employees. The employees who would gain this appeal right are those who are not represented by a recognized bargaining representative and who work in supervisory, professional, technical, clerical, administrative, or managerial positions that are covered by the Executive and Administrative Schedule. Currently, these employees might not have the same formal appeal options as other federal workers, and this bill would provide them with a standardized mechanism to challenge employment actions through the MSPB. By creating this new avenue for appeal, the bill seeks to enhance workplace protections and provide more consistent due process for a specific category of postal service employees.
