This bill nullifies the executive order titled Protecting the Federal Workforce, which was issued on January 22, 2021.

The order revoked previous executive orders concerning federal-employee collective bargaining and classifications. Specifically, it revoked orders that

  • limited the use of unrestricted grants for union activity,
  • specified objectives for agencies to negotiate collective-bargaining agreements and established the Interagency Labor Relations Working Group,
  • established principles for the removal and discipline of federal employees and other personnel issues, and
  • placed certain executive agency positions under a new schedule in the excepted service instead of the competitive service.

The order also instructs agencies to engage in collective bargaining negotiations over certain non-mandatory subjects, and requires the Office of Personnel Management to provide the President with recommendations to promote a minimum wage of $15 an hour for federal employees.
