Bill Summary
A bill to nullify certain Executive orders relating to exclusions from Federal labor-management relations programs, and for other purposes.
AI Summary
This bill, known as the Protect America's Workforce Act, aims to nullify two specific Executive Orders (14251 and 14343) that relate to exclusions from federal labor-management relations programs. The bill effectively invalidates these Executive Orders and prohibits the use of any federal funds to implement them. Additionally, the bill ensures that any existing collective bargaining agreements between federal agencies and labor organizations as of March 26, 2025, will remain fully in effect through their originally stated terms. In context, this legislation appears to be protecting federal workers' rights to collective bargaining by preventing the implementation of Executive Orders that might have restricted those rights. The bill seeks to maintain the status quo of labor-management relations in the federal government by preserving current collective bargaining agreements and blocking specific executive actions that could have limited workers' abilities to negotiate with their employers.
