     SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.

       This Act may be cited as the ``Federal Agency Customer 
     Experience Act of 2021''.

     SEC. 2. FINDINGS; SENSE OF CONGRESS.

       (a) Findings.--Congress finds that--
       (1) the Federal Government serves the people of the United 
     States and should seek to continually improve public services 
     provided by the Federal Government based on customer 
     feedback;
       (2) the people of the United States deserve a Federal 
     Government that provides efficient, effective, equitable, and 
     high-quality services and customer experiences across 
     multiple channels;
       (3) many agencies, offices, programs, and Federal employees 
     provide excellent customer experiences to individuals, but 
     many parts of the Federal Government still fall short on 
     delivering the customer experience that individuals have come 
     to expect from the private sector;
       (4) according to the 2020 American Customer Satisfaction 
     Index, the Federal Government ranks among the bottom of all 
     industries in the United States in customer satisfaction;
       (5) providing an equitable, reliable, transparent, and 
     responsive customer experience to individuals improves the 
     confidence of the people of the United States in their 
     Government and helps agencies achieve greater impact and 
     fulfill their missions; and
       (6) improving service to individuals requires agencies to 
     work across organizational boundaries, leverage technology, 
     collect and share standardized data, and develop customer-
     centered mindsets and experience strategies.
       (b) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that--
       (1) all agencies should strive to provide a high-quality, 
     courteous, effective, and efficient customer experience to 
     the people of the United States and seek to measure, collect, 
     report, and use metrics relating to the

[[Page S3085]]

     experience of individuals interacting with agencies to 
     continually improve the customer experience of the people of 
     the United States; and
       (2) adequate Federal funding is needed to ensure agency 
     staffing levels that can provide the public with an improved 
     customer experience.
