President Trump<\/a> on Friday said that career government employees working on policy matters for the administration will be reclassified “Schedule Policy\/Career,” \u2013 or at will employees \u2013 and will be fired if they don\u2019t adhere to his agenda.<\/p>\n

“Following my Day One Executive Order, the Office of Personnel Management will be issuing new Civil Service Regulations for career government employees,” the president wrote on Truth Social Friday afternoon.\u00a0<\/p>\n

He added, “Moving forward, career government employees, working on policy matters, will be classified as \u2018Schedule Policy\/Career,\u2019 and will be held to the highest standards of conduct and performance.”<\/p>\n

This comes as the Trump administration continues to fire federal employees in an effort to shrink the government<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n

FEDERAL JUDGE ORDERS HALT TO TRUMP ADMIN’S CFPB TERMINATIONS<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

The administration\u2019s Office of Personnel Management (OPM) estimated the rule change in Trump\u2019s executive order “Restoring Accountability to Policy-Influencing Positions Within the Federal Workforce” would affect around 50,000 employees or 2% of the federal workforce, the White House said in a Friday memo.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The regulations for civil service employees “with important policy-determining, policy-making, policy-advocating, or confidential duties” will now be considered “at-will” employees, “without access to cumbersome adverse action procedures or appeals, overturning Biden Administration regulations that protected poor performing employees.”\u00a0<\/p>\n

Trump added in his post: “If these government workers refuse to advance the policy interests of the President, or are engaging in corrupt behavior, they should no longer have a job. This is common sense, and will allow the federal government to finally be \u2018run like a business.\u2019 We must root out corruption and implement accountability in our Federal Workforce!”\u00a0<\/p>\n

SUPREME COURT RULES ON STATUS OF TENS OF THOUSANDS OF FIRED PROBATIONARY EMPLOYEES<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

The White House said the “rule empowers federal agencies to swiftly remove employees in policy-influencing roles for poor performance, misconduct, corruption, or subversion of Presidential directives, without lengthy procedural hurdles.”<\/p>\n

The employees aren\u2019t required to personally support the president, but “must faithfully implement the law and the administration\u2019s policies.”<\/p>\n

The proposed rule won’t change the status of affected employees’ jobs until another executive order is issued, the White House said.\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
