Bill Summary
A BILL To prohibit certain removals of employees of the Department of Health and Human Services and sub-agencies and operating divisions thereof, and for other purposes.
AI Summary
This bill aims to prevent large-scale employee removals at the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) and its sub-agencies by prohibiting the use of federal funds for significant workforce reductions. Specifically, the bill restricts any agency actions, including reductions in force or reorganizations, that would result in the removal of 3% or more of employees within a 60-day period, either across the entire HHS department or within individual sub-agencies and operating divisions. By imposing this limitation, the bill seeks to protect HHS employees from substantial workforce cuts and maintain stability within the department. The legislation effectively prevents federal funds from being used to implement widespread terminations, potentially safeguarding jobs and preventing major disruptions to the department's operations and service delivery.
