Maybe now when you deal with a federal worker like let say the Post Office; they'll be less rude and work faster for your tax dollar. MAGA

[BTrump takes aim at federal bureaucracy with new executive orders altering civil service protections][/b]

President Trump issued three executive orders Friday aimed at overhauling the federal bureaucracy by making it easier to fire poor performers, sharply curtailing the amount of time federal employees can be paid for union work and directing agencies to negotiate tougher union contracts.

The orders could result in the biggest changes in a generation to civil service protections long enjoyed by federal workers.

I thought executive orders were bad?

Either way, he's a complete hypocrite for supporting police unions.

There is a better article about this in the Washington Examiner. WaPo ignores the background and the abuses taking place.

Washington Examiner -

"The 1978 Civil Service Reform Act requires the government to pay federal workers for time they spend on union work, but White House officials said this essentially allows hundreds of workers to be full-time union employees.

"Over 470 Veterans Affairs employees spend 100 percent of their duty hours working for a labor union instead of serving veterans. This includes 74 full-time nurses," the White House said in a fact sheet"

https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/n...million-a-year

Imagine getting away with that in the private sector.

It's good to see someone in DC working for the taxpayers, instead of working for the campaign donors. Hopefully this will take off.

He’s moving to a merit based system over a seniority based system

Sounds good to me. Perhaps some people were happy with the inefficiencies of countless federal agencies and jobs .

I see in the coming months a wave of federal workers putting in their retirement papers.
Trump is cutting the federal government down to size one democrat voting donating worker at a time MAGA

About time someone did it. There are people being paid 6 figures with 100% healthcare coverage to lick stamps. It's basically just a big jobs program. Most of the important things are handled at the state/local level.

If this was true, Trump would sign an executive order banning members of congress from becoming lobbyists for 5 years after they leave office.
